Deception > overpowering
We have faced more than our share of 92+, 94+ and 96+ arms this calendar year. But the 3 best pitchers we have faced to date:
1. A Juco RHP that changes arm angles every pitch from submarine to 3/4 and sidearm and throws nothing straight topping at 89 with frisbees.
2. A HS freshman LHP at 6’6+ topping at 87 with a change up that the bottom falls out of.
3. A low 3/4 RHP that lives 86-89 whose delivery was deceptive long arms and legs and fastball sinks and runs a foot+.
All 3 were strike throwing dawgs on top of it. It’s a simple game.
3 things I look for in “projectability” from middle school to the high school level:
1. Confidence at the plate
2. Consistently on time
3. Consistently takes hard swings
*these hitters usually have an easier time making the jump to 60/90*
Going D1 is not a flex.
There’s nothing “flexy” about going D1 and graduating with college debt.
Just sayin
The travel portal has single handedly done a better job of evening the playing field for JUCO, D3, D2, and D1 mid majors than anything else I’ve seen to this point.

The Recruiting Pecking Order in 2023:
1. 4-Year College Transfers
2. Junior College Transfers
3. High School Players
High schoolers, you have your work cut out for you!

You’re not a hitter if you’ve never looked at one of your teammates and said this 🤣🤣

Preesh my man. Hopefully I bring more to the game than I took from it

Isn’t ironic how much we preach to hitters to “look for your pitch” when it’s less about what you look for and more about what that pitcher is willing to give you?
