2022 @CamdenChalfant (@EMHSBaseball) had a solid start for @SandlotOkc2022 sitting 88-89 early and settled in at 86-88. Featured a hard slider at 77-78 that he commanded to both sides of the dish. @PBR_Oklahoma #Super17

2022 @stampsluke8 (Bentonville HS) was sharp pitching from a low 3/4 slot up to 88. Also mixing a breaking ball at 73-74 with big depth and a fading CH for @MarucciMidwest Victus National. @PBR_Arkansas #Super17

Early trunk rotation - (ETR) Me: “can you feel it?” Player: “no” Me: “can you see the difference here?” Player: “yes!” ETR: happens for many reasons. It’s hard to feel / recognize as the thrower. Very rewarding to help players on this technique

Often times we overlook the simple... like grip or terminology. This guy throws a perfectly good gyro slider that needs ZERO help. As coaches we need to do our best to fully evaluate players before we try to change them.

This impressed me... this kid came in as a self taught pitcher and moved very well. ( rocker - top of lift - mid stride ) He gained ground and loaded his hips & back leg during his lift. Creation of lead leg delay adds tons of late momentum!

Save this one guys .... it’s a good tool for spin direction to pair with the @rapsodo I have it pulled up on my phone every time I am coaching a pitch design session.

Here is a look through my eyes.... this is the same kid who was lacking hip rotation (blue shirt, prior tweet). Working on sequence and ground use specific hip rotation timing.

I like @DrivelineBB drop step drill with the intense focus of sequence. I will even have players close their eyes and just feel. “Put your mind in the lower half”

Curveballs - both of these were “curveballs” to this guy. The @rapsodo and @HudlTechnique make finding the best one way easier than it used be.

Lead leg bracing is difficult to do constantly. Landing with greater angle and working hard to extend faster makes a big difference in pitch velocity.

I love breaking down mechanics to find areas where an athlete can make impactful changes that have immediate impact. Lead leg was the focus here in this situation.

Getting closer to season and working with our “double ball” curveball trainer gives guys instant feedback.
