Fall Recap It was a wild couple of weeks balancing school and playing in the WWBA Underclass in Fort Myers and the WWBA 18U in Jupiter back-to-back recently. Across 11 games: Lefty BA       0.600 OB%   0.684 SLG% 1.000 OPS.   1.684 Overall as a switch-hitter BA       0.500 OB%   0.608 SLG% 0.833 OPS    1.441 6 doubles Only 2 K’s 0 errors while rotating among different positions at catcher, infield, and outfield. In coming weeks, I am looking forward to visiting some amazing universities, continuing to put in the extra work in the gym and on the track, and being ready in every way as soon as I step back on the field in January to start the high school season! 👤 Banks Stevenson (2028 S/R C/UTL) 💪 6’1 / 195 lbs. 🏠 Charlotte, NC 👨‍🎓 4.24GPA / @CHRISTIANBSBALL ⚾️ @SBATheShow 📈 100+ EV 🚩 #uncommitted / @FlatgroundBats / @jakerobbins49 / @jrudd_scout

🚨Coaching Leadership🚨 A young pitcher comes off the mound after a rough inning. He already knows it was bad. He doesn’t need a coach yelling at home or a 5-minute speech. Give him one adjustment, show him you still trust him, and get him ready for the next inning. #Coaching #Development @FlatgroundApp

Agree or Disagree? One thing I’d change in youth baseball tomorrow: ✅Less coaching EVERY pitch! ✅Let kids think!! ✅Let them make decisions!!! ✅Let them fail‼️ 🔥Then ASK them why they made the decision instead of immediately telling them what they did wrong. We say we want high baseball IQ players… then sometimes we never let them think for themselves. #Baseball #PlayerDevelopment

Baseball will test your identity. One day you’re the guy. Next day you’re 0-for-12, getting hit around or sitting on the bench. If your identity is completely tied to performance, this game will eat you alive. Work hard. Compete. Care deeply. But understand: You are more than your statistics. That’s something my faith has helped me understand more as I’ve gotten older. Who you are is more important than what you do! John 1:12 #Baseball #Faith

Dominant performance by #uncommitted 2028 @flowers_tr74509 today. The 6'3/215 lbs RHP tossed 5 scoreless innings, allowing just one hit and striking out three. Sat mid 80s with plus off speed. Works quick & attacks hitters. 4.5 GPA! @FlatgroundApp @SbaBoltsFlorida @jakerobbins49

🚨Aspiring College Athletes!🚨 One of the biggest recruiting mistakes I see is chasing the NAME on the front of the jersey instead of the OPPORTUNITY. Where can you play? Where can you develop? Where does the coaching staff believe in you? Where do you fit academically? There’s nothing wrong with having big goals. But playing college sports is a lot more fun when you actually PLAY. Parents/coaches — would you rather your player sit at a bigger program or play immediately somewhere else? Where are you celebrated vs tolerated! #CollegeSports #CollegeBaseball #Recruiting @FlatgroundApp
