Stacked Baseball

Two great team wins this week, I had a two Homer game with a grand slam and a backside double with 2 strikes. @CreanBaseball @Stackedbaseball @NextlevelOC @cbcmob

"If you tell them the truth, they're going to hate you for a day. If you lie to them, they're going to hate you forever." Pirates manager Don Kelly shared some advice he got from Hall of Fame manager Jim Leyland on being transparent and truthful with players.

Swings from earlier today: Working on keeping my hands through the zone longer. Clip 1: Soft toss Clip 2: Swings off CB machine Clip 3 & 4: Swings off arm to finish

4-4 at the plate against Kennedy. Pitched an inning too!

Good start to the season, 8/16 through my first 5 games. Trusting my approach and excited to keep grinding this season. #uncommitted 2027 @CreanBaseball @NextlevelOC @Stackedbaseball @cbcmob

St. John Bosco HS (CA) SS James Clark has been hot ticket prospect from the turn of the calendar with some first-round buzz, lots of fluidity and impact tools, had an inside-the-parker today (video: @Thomas_L_Murray)

Orange Lutheran SS CJ Weinstein (@weinstein_cj) gets on the board, slashing a double the other way. Was really good last summer and will be one of the premium names in Southern California this spring.

VOLUME UP. St. John Bosco shortstop James Clark (@James_Clark_22) showcasing the bat speed we’ve raved about. One of the buzziest names in SoCal this spring. Pretty clear why. Can play anywhere on the diamond. Very clear first round tools.

BANG. James. Clark. Nuke job. Dodger Stadium. @james_clark_22 Nobody can slow this kid down. 📈📈📈

James Clark is unconscious at the plate right now. Following up a dynamite summer with an even more impressive start to the spring: a cycle at Area Code Select West. Pure hitter with lightning-quick bat speed, plus run times, explosive athletic testing. First round name.

Go ahead hit on 3-2 count in the 8th to secure a great team win against St. John Bosco @Stackedbaseball @mikemarshhittin @LosAlBaseball

I asked Tim Corbin this afternoon about the possibility of a shorter MLB draft and the growing idea of “development offloading” to college baseball — a concept explored by @LanceBroz, @JoeDoyleMiLB, @JacobRudner, and several others. Here was his long-winded answer: "Well, we've had a lot of conversations about that. I'm biased, but I need to be biased because I've been doing the same thing for a long period of time, and I haven't at any point wanted to make a move in other direction. And that's because I believe in education, I believe in this environment. And I'm not talking about Vanderbilt. I could be talking about Virginia or Texas right now. I just feel like at 18 and 19, there's certain consistencies that exist inside of a college environment that enhances the growth of athletic performance, and I'm a big believer in it. We were on phone call this morning about what you're talking about right here, and I think sometimes the college game is all about winning more so than development. But the reality is, I would agree with that, because you have to develop in order to win, and if you don't develop, you don't win. So winning is the outcome, but the process is our development of the person. I'm all about that. I'm here for it. I mean, that's, that's everything that I've ever wanted. I love teaching, and I'd rather be seen in their eyes as a teacher than a coach. The title means nothing to me. The teaching piece of it means everything to me, because those are the actions that exist inside of the environment here. So yeah, for me, I really enjoy that. I want to get the 18 year old. We've lost players — De brun and Gamble this past year, they made that choice. Do I think they'd be better off if they were here? That's their decision. But for me, I already know I don't have to answer that question. I know what's best for a young man. I feel very strongly about that, and I would talk to anyone in any room about it."
