Bonus - be huge. If you’re tall you just have a free unlock for a lot of things in baseball
Aside from height and size many of these qualities can be trained, so if you're looking for more extension or wonder why your extension is down, check there

So you want more “extension” like Strider, but don’t know where to start?
IMO it can be created by these four things:
1) Drift
2) Adductors
3) “Jump”
4) Forward flexion & lat length (posterior oblique sling)
Shoutout @Elilawrence__ for a few of these side views

Many coaches will give every athlete the same five throwing drills and expect each of them to get better from it. There is an art to drill prescription, and knowing what cue, drill or explanation an athlete needs can be very tricky.

The “impossible” becoming more and more possible - the convergence of experience, modern medicine, a dream, and a lot of perserverance.
Congrats, Ben!

News you love to see: Tyler Zombro, the right-hander who came back from a horrific line drive that fractured his skull, is signing a minor league deal with the Texas Rangers and is reporting to AAA. Here is the original story on Zombro that ran on ESPN: twitter.com/i/status/14309…
Jeff Passan@JeffPassan
Less than two months ago, a line drive traveling at 104 mph hit Tyler Zombro in the head, caused him to have a seizure on the mound and left witnesses wondering if he'd live. This is the story of his remarkable comeback -- and how he is so much more than a single horrific moment.

All time post game. As funny as some responses were here, pitchers need to learn something from the mentality here.
Accurate self reflection. No panic. On to tomorrow.

God I love this wide eyed psycho! On giving up the HR to Pete Alonso: “An unfortunate time to be the lesser Pete” When asked about the cold weather : “I’ve got my wool socks & I’ve got my turtle neck so I’m doing all sorts of stuff for that.” A BEAUTY

Some thoughts regarding the recent injury talk on this platform & how the pitch clock factors into injury rate. 🧐⏰ 1A - As energy transfers from segment to segment there are two ways load is distributed - muscle vs. ligament/joint (Love talking to @doublexcanflex about this)

A deeper look at Mitch Keller's transformation👏

Stephen J. Nesbitt@stephenjnesbitt
Last May, Mitch Keller had just been demoted to the bullpen, and a national broadcast aired this graphic. Worst, worst, worst, worst, worst. It was a new low in an MLB career that had been a series of rock bottoms. A year later, he's a force. What? theathletic.com/4502854/2023/0…
