@Seth_3773 He didn’t see the fake punch any better than that high strike There’s history here

What are we doing here? The coach coming in with the fake punch? The ump not flinching huge flex by him.

@joshgessner This phenomenon has run amuck They’ll sign up then run the 40 in eight seconds Introspection is the sixth tool And may involve walking on to a JuCo The game remains the same

The Brutal Reality of Getting Recruited. If you're a guy who's throwing 78 to 82 and you go to these showcases, I don't know what you're expecting. No matter how many eyes are on you, you're not going to get that many offers, especially at the Division One level. I don't really know a single person who got recruited to Division One throwing 78 to 81. And I know it's brutal, and I know there's a lot of noise around it like, "All my buddies are going to this travel thing or showcase." And, "I'm not going to get recruited if I don't go to all of this." At the end of the day, travel ball and showcases are a business. They're trying to get as many kids as possible into travel ball and showcases. They don't care if you don't get recruited. There's a lot of FOMO around this because everyone goes, and people think they're missing out on opportunities or scouting eyes or whatever. In reality, if you're not good enough to get recruited, which is your main goal, then I'd rather you save that money and time and invest it somewhere else.

@CoachSwit Saw something similar in JuCo Highly touted lefty HS draft pick 6’3 95+ on a properly calibrated radar gun Coach had everyone take until two strikes the first time through the order You know the rest

Back when I was coaching varsity baseball in California… Facing a 90+ drafted arm. We ran 5 straight suicide squeezes. Worked 4 in a row—didn’t on the 5th. Opposing coach: “Teach your kids to swing.” Me: “Teach yours to defend a bunt.” We won 4–2. Adjust…or get beat.

A doff of the cap to the fine folks of Consuelo DR and the Impacta Youth Academy

@mlbelites_ This is the way

Greg Maddux once finished a complete game in only 78 pitches 😳

@The_BPCsj Gotta love the effortless velocity and balance One serves the other

Chase Petty Bullpen Day (Reds) Smooth 94-97 as he prepares for ‘26 🔥 -Two Separate FB shapes, killing VB on SNK -CH averaging between 0-5 VB down from 7VB last year. -Gyro consistently getting to 0H line, no more arm side backup (2H avg last year). -Executing Sweeper glove side w/ 2K. Graded well last year but inconsistent execution in finish counts. Dominating the details @ChasePetty11 #Develop @RedsDaily4 @RedsOnTheRise @milb_central @MRHS_Baseball

@24aaronallen_ @CoachLumley @London_Badgers @PrepBaseballON @PB_Uncommitted @ThePBLO Sign him based on his follow through into a balanced fielding position alone #Intangibles

UNCOMMITED LHP 2027 Aaron Allen | Bullpen from yesterday FB: 79 - 80 T-83 CB: 63 - 65 CH: 71 - 73 Looking for NCAA Division 1 Opportunities @CoachLumley @London_Badgers @PrepBaseballON @PB_Uncommitted @ThePBLO

@mlbelites_ You’ll get what you sort for

The ump honestly should have been fired after this

Want to get recruited from a JuCo? Stop chasing pitch velocity and throw strikes with a change of speed Stop chasing exit velocity and make contact How? Primary and secondary balance points along with strong Intangibles Start getting to class And be ready to walk on

@RealEvanPetsch @UncommittedStud @UBAuncommitted @UncommittedUTR @jucoroute @CoastRecruits @BaseballCf @BUncommitted @uncommittedBBs @PNW_Uncommitted @ParadigmPDS @Kabel_23 Outstanding balance points Play JuCo

💥DAY 179 of trying to get recruited as a senior. Got some light throwing in. Keeping it loose. #classof2026 #LHP @UncommittedStud @UBAuncommitted @UncommittedUTR @jucoroute @CoastRecruits @BaseballCF @BUncommitted @uncommittedBBs @PNW_Uncommitted

@tylermilliken_ @francysromeroFR Note the fluidity and secondary balance point He’ll pitch until he’s 50 Viva Brazil

The Red Sox have officially signed RHP Claudio Pereira out of Brazil for a $500,000 bonus, per @francysromeroFR He’s the top prospect out of Brazil. Currently 6’6, 170 at 17. FB is already up to 90. Good feel for his changeup. Throws a curveball as well.

@BostonStrong_34 Note the secondary balance point

Aroldis Chapman with a bullpen session 🔥

@SanzeriBaseball Look at that shoulder recoil and lack of secondary balance point The objective is to prevent runs efficiently over time Movement and change of speed >Velo Dr Frank Jobe blushes

This tip can help almost every pitcher. Front foot down, then throw, is the feeling you want. Allow your delivery to happen, get to a strong position at foot strike, then bring down the house. Well timed intensity. Stay sideways as long as possible. Build rhythm into foot strike, get violent after. Resist early shoulder rotation, rotate late in a hallway, be patient.

@SanzeriBaseball It’s a lost art

Pitchers, I encourage all of you to learn to hit a crisp fungo. Backspin, topspin, be able to move a guy side to side etc. Valuable skill to have in the bag! Be a great teammate.

@mbain_38 @steven_talbertt @blakemmcrae @3PD_Performance The fear is founded considering the scrap heap of broken down velocity chasing power pitchers Dr Frank Jobe blushes

Don’t tell me man… tell these guys. They’re only healthy guys who throw 100 or just signed in the draft for $8 Mil. Game takes what it takes - More guys try to be the anomaly that is Greg Maddux, the more opportunities there are for those willing to push themselves to be the best athlete and pitcher they can be. Have a nice one & please keep telling kids they’re gonna blow out if they’re not Greg Maddux! Nothing like playing the game scared of getting hurt!

With the new scouting restriction, we’re unable to have college athletes throw in a pro day this year 😢 While we will still hold a Pro Day this year (Feb. 6), I found it only appropriate to give our college guys some shine - they have more than earned it - They are ELECTRIC. Below is a thread that I will add to over the coming weeks of guys who certainly would have been on the Pro Day roster AND guys that we believe our primed for a phenomenal 2026 season 🧵 First, let’s look at some of the best individual pitches from the winter from both our professional and collegiate groups ⚡️

Registration for 2026 is open! Please see HamptonsBaseballCamp.com

@TJHannam10 Legend Great swing Summoning Chase Utley JuCo is a great environment to log innings, develop, and experience intra-team competition

This kid just committed D1 after hitting .340 in the 3 hole at his JUCO🔥🔥 Proud of you, Ryan!
