@JLucroy20 The middle and lowering my launch angle because I was not hitting balls hard enough to get them out through the middle/backside. When he left, I struggled because I would lose that foundation and ability to use the whole field.

RedSox org philosophy makes sense with the green monster being a doubles machine. Problem is that a pull heavy philosophy doesn't translate to consistent hitting. Pulling the ball in the air is great on paper, but having that approach all the time won't work when you have a good arm on the mound that can locate down and away. So many issues with that philosophy, no wonder you struggled. Irregardless, the greatest hitters try and hit line drives up the middle. Extension comes from mistakes, or getting a nice heater in a good count. Extension comes from hitting the ball out in front. If you try and pull everything, you roll over anything down and away, hard or soft. I played with many great hitters. Pujols, Beltre, Soto, Braun, Fielder, Posey, Trea Turner, Trout, Ohtani. All these guys focused on driving ball back up the middle, stay back on offspeed while staying up the middle. It's all angles and bat path which leads to contact points in the swing. Anyway, the best hitters all had this philosophy. As did I.

@C_Hetz Has been successful everywhere he has been. In A ball I was struggling as we were being trained to hunt 1 pitch and pull it over the fence. This was never my play style. We sat and talked throughout an entire game about how I viewed hitting and how I could balance

@JLucroy20 I agree with you. That’s why I am highlighting that Hetz was one of the few in the organization to listen and adapt to what helps that individual player. Just because his background is Driveline doesn’t mean he is one dimensional. We found success together by getting back through

Andrew Huberman shared something beautiful with Theo Von: “I’m a scientist… and I pray every day. On my knees. Morning, night, even quietly in the bathroom before coming here.” He talked about how reading the Bible and learning animals can see light we can’t (UV, infrared) made faith feel natural—not separate from science, but part of what makes it all more wondrous. Theo smiled: “Sometimes an idea comes through and I think… that wasn’t just me. I’m just trying to be a good antenna.” This 2-minute moment is gentle, honest, and deeply human. If you’ve ever felt there might be more to life than what we can measure—this one’s for you.

Excited and blessed to announce my commitment to Samford University!! @BCHS_Baseball @16uFTB @SamfordBaseball

Ninety percent of success can be boiled down to consistently doing the obvious thing for an uncommonly long period of time without convincing yourself that you're smarter than you are.

Shohei Ohtani is known among teammates as an epic sleeper — someone who regularly banks 12 hours. All the Jays and Dodgers needed it after Game 3.
