I have to take responsibility for partially or even largely convincing a generation of researchers to write off situational hitting variations as flukes. I may have been wrong to do that. We have vastly better data now than we did 40 years ago. Let's look at the options again.

Before every at-bat, @LibertyBaseball center fielder @derek_orndorff scratches a cross in the dirt. The @ASUNBSB umpire ain't having none of that. I wonder why he doesn't cover up what the other batters are scratching in the dirt.

A good path works behind &through the ball allowing hitters to make clean contact&create good ball flight w/backspin.When your path is down &across your bat is in&out of the zone very quickly.This path tends to miss hit the ball&have poor ball flight (slice,hook,overspin,topspin)

Kids that mature physically early are the elite players 10-14u. That advantage lessens in HS.
This is why player rankings are irrelevant at 15u and below. Also why being on an elite youth team doesn’t matter.
Only priority should be developing your skillset & love for baseball.

Calling your own game as a pitcher and catcher shouldn’t be a privilege. Give kids the ability to fail. Give them the experience to learn! If you force all your pitchers and catchers to throw exactly what you say, you’re taking a key part of the mental game away from them.

PLAYER DEVELOPMENT is the “new” money ball - the new frontier. Can you make your players better day by day - can you enhance your players’ skill sets, can you build elite PLAYERS? Do you embrace science & technology to make your players better? It’s time.

The only unanimous HOF member with arguably the single greatest individual pitch ever, credits the “ability to fully commit to the moment” as the separator. Develop a mindset that helps you and then protect it at all costs. The body follows the mind.

“I was a spread out, foot down early guy in college. And I got to pro ball and it didn’t work. I was basically starting my swing twice and I was late.”

If the average club golfer did just 10% of this routine prior to their round they would likely experience a meaningful improvement in how their body feels and performs.

The instant snap, the sudden burst, that results from breaking through the resistance, is the only way to deal with quality pitching.
