@James_Schiano Couple of my friends work in player development (one private one at a college) and we love breaking that out… “what do you know about seam shifted wake”

How it feels to say “seam shifted wake”

#Rays are calling up top prospect Carson Williams and putting SS Ha-Seong Kim on the IL, as he was scratched from lineup last night due to back stiffness. First with Williams report was @JeffPassan.

Looking for affiliated opportunities 2025 Trackman numbers: SI: 91-93 mph top 94, 0'' IVB, 19'' HB SL: 84-87 mph top 90, 0'' IVB, -4'' HB SW: 80-83 mph top 86,-1'' IVB, -17'' HB •38% whiff rate vs RHB •48% SL whiff rate (59% vs RHB) •46% SW whiff rate 587-990-9726

A round of applause for @davitt_d and his tremendous start tonight!! 👏👏👏 8 IP (career high), 0 R, 3 H, 0 BB, 2 SO, 87 pitches

Another great start, this time from @davitt_d!! 6.0 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 7 SO

Davitt leads us to a shutout win! #ButterUp🧈

@WizardOfCut @BaseballAmerica No

@davitt_d @BaseballAmerica Are you on a free agent deal?

Minor league pay has changed dramatically in a short amount of time. Updated numbers for 2025 🔽 buff.ly/SiCGRuw

@WizardOfCut @BaseballAmerica Hey so double A player here. These numbers are correct as printed

@BaseballAmerica This just isn’t true. That’s the biweekly total and still those numbers are before taxes. Double A players take home around $750 every 2 weeks

What a start for Duncan Davitt (@davitt_d)!! 6 IP, 0 R, 1 H, 1 BB, 🔟K

@ThirdCoachFlaws @BiscuitBaseball Happy to do it! Sgo skits!

Shout out to @davitt_d for hooking up the @BiscuitBaseball cap! I’ve always wanted one of these, easily the best mascot/cap in baseball.

@TreadAthletics Started doing this a couple weeks ago and I thought I would look super dumb but it’s very quickly starting to become my favorite drill of the workout

My #1 rotational power move for pitchers: Tornado Ball Wall Slams ✅Learn to "close the gap" explosively (oblique sling) ✅Forces lead leg stabilization ✅Forces explosive hip rotation ✅Can apply WAY more intensity than MBs You can see the impact of that simple cue in the second half of the video. From “hey demo this drill” to trying to do damage. The entire pattern shifts. Athletes love this one once they get in the groove because you can feel the entire oblique sling working, unlike most MB throws. It feels like you’re throwing absolute haymakers with your core around a stable lead leg. “Break the wall.”

@JohnEcreel First team lift on campus as a freshman I watched an upperclassman back squat 500lbs for reps. Probably the biggest wake up call I’ve ever had

My best advice to any athlete in the 13-15yo age range. No matter how physical you think you are, you’re likely not up to par. You’re 14, you aren’t supposed to be. Yet.

@Hassel_Chris This is what the NFL has taken from us

Broadcast missed it! BYU ties it at 7 on a surprise onside!

Duncan Davitt with a superb start👏👏👏👏 @davitt_d #ButterUp🧈 His final line: 5.0 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 8 SO

@TannerBercier I think it’s more like this. I think pitches from a wide angle can have more room to be quality to same handed hitters. Could see an issue against opposing sided hitters, they could see the ball a little too long. Similar to why sweepers aren’t as effective against OHH

@davitt_d Actually no, I’m theory if a righty was throwing from the right side from middle, maybe would kill perceived HB, making it more effective rise ball 🤷‍♂️

Everybody is talking about VAA and how that effects 4 seam heaters. But how does HAA effect east west profile type of guys?🛸 For example, Chris Sale’s slider averages: 78.8 mph 11.3 HB and -7.1 IVB Definitely a quality pitch, but how much does it play better due to his extreme HAA?🤷‍♂️
