Playing summer ball for the Martinsville Mustangs in the Costal Plains League
As a baseball scout, there are two concerning hitting characteristics with HS & College hitters that stand out more today than ever before.
1) No Plan At The Plate
Successful hitters don’t just hope to get a hit—they know what pitch they’re hunting, they exercise zone awareness, they know what part of the field they’re trying to use, they know how to work counts, and how they’re going to attack pitch to pitch. They have a plan, they don’t just “wing it.”
If you fail to plan—then plan to fail.
2) Lack Of Competing In The Box
Every pitch is a battle. Fighting off tough pitches. Refusing to get beat. Making the pitcher earn every out. Competing in the box isn’t about the “result”—a hitter can go 0-4, but have four quality at bats. Competing in the box is about your approach, focus, and effort every single pitch.
Yes, swing operation and talent matters, however a “plan” and a “competitive” mindset in the box separate good hitters from the rest.
Never forget . .
Success is never owned. It is only rented, and the rent is due everyday!
"One day, Earl Weaver came out to mound when I'm in trouble in an inning, after Mark Belanger, who was as good a shortstop as there was, made an error and Boog Powell lost a ball in the sun.
Earl says to me, 'Are you trying?'
I said, 'That's it, Earl?'
Why don't you say that to your 280-pound first baseman who lost a ball in the sun and watch him plant you in the ground?'"
Jim Palmer.
"I don't want to win my three-hundredth game while Earl Weaver's still here.
He'd take credit for it."
Jim Palmer.
Jim Palmer threw five innings in a spring training game, then began his outfield running program — back when pitchers would run laps on the warning track while the game continued.
With a young pitcher Mike Flanagan in the Orioles’ dugout, Weaver called Flanagan over. “See that guy?” Weaver told Flanagan, pointing at Jim Palmer.
“Just do what he does and you’ll never have a problem playing in the big leagues.”
Earl Weaver’s Ten Laws of Baseball:
1. No one’s going to give a damn in July if you lost a game in March.
2. If you don’t make any promises to your players, you won’t have to break them.
3. The easiest way around the bases is with one swing of the bat.
4. Your most precious possessions on offense are your 27 outs.
5. If you play for one run, that’s all you’ll get.
6. Don’t play for one run unless you know that run will win a ballgame.
7. It’s easier to find four good starters than five.
8. The best place for a rookie pitcher is long relief.
9. The key step for an infielder is the first one—left or right—but before the ball is hit.
10. The job of arguing with the umpires belongs to the manager, because it won’t hurt the team if he gets kicked out of the game.
And ask Palmer about Baltimore Orioles fundamentals!!
Gary Cohen: "A terrible decision by Chapman as he gets gunned down for the first out of the ninth with his team down by three runs!"
Todd Zeile: "Gunned down, and rightly so. His run means nothing."
Cohen: "It caps off a horrible, no good, awful week for Matt Chapman." #MLB
“We are looking forward to our opening four weekends. We will face some premier programs with great tradition. This aggressive schedule will help us get ready for the highly competitive America East slate.” -Coach Mueller
BREAKING: Economy is so bad, even Maria Bartiromo can't spin it."Not only were announced layoffs the highest layoffs since 2020, that's a recession year. But announced hirings are down. That's not a good mix."
When you lose Fox News.
Asked Keon Coleman today how comfortable he's gotten in the offense.
Thought he had a real good perspective with his answer.
"There's no comfortability when it comes to playing football."

In a sport like baseball playing at a high level consistently for 26 straight games is hard to do. Coastal Carolina Coach Kevin Schnall explains the biggest things their staff emphasizes:
“Frees” (Walks and HBP)
Win the “Big Inning War”
Score first
Win the race to 7
