@nbbaseball2011 @CoachDavidKlein It takes the fun out of the game way to early.

@CoachDavidKlein We have “coach pitch” travel ball tournaments in NorCal now! Wild times.

This bothers me. These kids are 3-4 years away from being able to kid pitch baseball that actually looks like baseball. They are being robbed of a fun youth baseball experience. They don’t need to be playing machine pitch. They don’t need to be playing coach pitch. They need to be playing T-ball! The worst part is… This is going on in hundreds of thousands of communities across the US. Misguided rec league boards and parents pushing their kids to play kid pitch too early because they think it’s what’s best for their development. Super frustrating to see. Can someone make me feel better and tell me this is AI? Hope so.

@Shane_Saunders_ is one of the best kids to be around and works his tail off. Happy he has the chance to go help @FullertonBSB succeed next year. Gritty, competitor, selfless.

Logan Gilbert, holding runners. And Josh Naylor with the deke. That leaves Jose Altuve just standing there for the easy pickoff.

Continues to develop his off speed stuff! @PB_Uncommitted

‘26 Ayden Deome (CA @ArizonaBaseball) drops a heavy barrel to this one for muscled triple to the fence. Present (additional) strength on an athletic 6’2” 200 frame that should still add more. Balanced approach. #MLBDraft || @PrepBaseballCA

Overprotected kids become unprepared adults. Dawn Staley nailed it.🔥 You can’t shelter your child from every hard moment and then expect them to handle adversity when it counts. Hard is the lesson. Watch. Share. Bookmark.

Recruit and Develop

#2 in strikeouts in all of California.

So awesome to see Kade Hiatt on this list. Coached him at 12u and always had the potential to be a dude!

Friendly reminder that Bryce Harper dropped out of High School at 16, transferred to a JuCo, and got drafted at 17. He came into pro baseball as the most-hyped prospect of all time with insane expectations. He surpassed the expectations 💯

𝙏𝙒𝙊 𝙏𝙊 𝙒𝘼𝙏𝘾𝙃 Hornet senior RHP Ethan Lay and junior RHP Kurt Marton were named to the initial @CollegeDiamonds National Pitcher of the Year Award watch list on Wednesday... 📰: hornetsports.com/news/2026/3/11… #StingersUp x @WACsports

If you’re not running hard out of the box like this, then what are you doing? Love watching @BwittJr play

This is partly why we have so many dad ran teams especially 9u-13u. I remember being the 9th to 12th best kid on my team. Wait your turn and show up when called on. @NorCalU1

Sac State baseball is probably the most underrated program in Sacramento. Always in the mix, produces pros, always competitive, now about to beat LSU in Baton Rouge 👀

SACRAMENTO STATE SURVIVES IN ALEX BOX 🔥🔥 Hornets nearly squandered the lead but hold on after pitching 7 shutout innings to even the series with #2 LSU

Tonight a local kid from Rocklin, California will take the mound for the United States of America. Chills. Such a cool opportunity. Anything is possible 👊

‘26 LHP @DrewGalbaugh3 out of @GraniteBayHigh Galbaugh gets start for GB. Threw secondaries for strikes, pitched backwards. FB: 83-84 T85 CB: 73-75 CH: 74-76 3.1 IP | H | 3 ER | 4 K @PrepBaseballCA | @PB_Uncommitted

Ready to get conference started @NorCalU1 @RyanEvangelho @SStormCoach12 @GoldenArm_21
