@CaseyDykes @ADillonLawson All time favorite!

Have heard about this book for a long time. Started the year with it. Some good notes from it: 🧵

Colson with No. 20 and the White Sox take a 10-9 lead. The blast came after Ferrer dropped a routine Teel grounder back to the mound on Teel. 4 errors for the Nats tonight.

HS Baseball Players ⚾️ YOU don't need a D1 offer at 16. YOU NEED TO OUT WORK the players that got one 💯😤

Colson Montgomery has 6 homer in his last 9 games👀 Talk about settling into the big leagues.

@MrMaxPrice Man I needed to hear that!! Thanks Max

If you make everything so businesslike en route to a goal that you can’t have fun along the way, then what happens if you don’t reach the goal? No fun at all? Be present. Have some fun while you work towards the goal.

Knights lose 8-6 but, honestly, who cares because Colson Montgomery had 2 homers and 2 doubles (though 1 was via a defensive misread in the outfield), and Brooks Baldwin chipped in a homer (over the centerfield wall) and 2 singles — and suddenly, at least for a night, the future of the White Sox doesn’t look so grim. Among the supporting cast, Bryan Ramos had a double in 5 ABs, and Dom Fletcher had a single and a double. Starter Mike Clevinger went 5 innings, giving up 6 hits, 2 earned runs, including a home run, with 2 walks and 1 strikeout. @FutureSox @KnightsBaseball @whitesox

Last 7 MVPs are foreign born. Maybe the hyper formalization of youth sports in the US isn’t helping. We funnel kids into age specific tourneys, chase meaningless trophies over growth & development, prioritize ego boosting wins instead of competitive reps in tough environments.
