The Marlins are running one of the most interesting side quests in baseball right now Their best starters are also their highest-leverage relievers? Let's talk about it 🧵

A starter with a big chronic base can absorb a 15-20 pitch inning on his side session day without a meaningful spike in workload Same inning for a pitcher without a solid chronic base could be a different story You can't know which you have by guessing. You know by tracking

The Marlins already turned a September trial run into an org-wide standard once If starters relieving on side days sticks too, the teams tracking every throw will be ready Looking forward to seeing if they keep it going next year and how they execute it

College summer recap🔥 Four different levels of college ball. One summer of good training together! Loved watching these guys push each other. Strength up. Mechanics up. Velo up. The grind doesn't stop. Fall isn't a victory lap, it's another window to get better. 👀

Understanding why certain pitches move the way they do is the first step towards efficient pitch design Pitch movement is derived from both Magnus (Spin-Based) and Non-Magnus movement ⚖️ What’s the difference? How do they work? 1/🧵

The deload right after the season sets up your whole offseason. Most guys pull the wrong lever. 🪡

The BlueMan threw 95 What changed between the two throws? Buy a ticket, take the ride 👀🧵👇 ...and never forget to #CallTheKopps 🚨
The difference between 90 and 95 is much smaller than you think

All summer, one question kept coming up on the AZ floor: "Why don't your plyos have seams?" Fair question, and the answer is a lesson in how plyos are used to help build a better throw! 🧵

This is where continued motor learning comes in to play A coach can randomize drill order and randomize the ball weight. Build in contextual interference so nothing gets too comfortable and the retrieval cue never fully sets in. 9/10

The lesson learned: If the goal is to build a better throw, throw plyos. Specifically ones with no seams. 10/10
