You can't hold a player accountable if he doesn't know the standard.

Just see it and hit it can be a tough solution. Where and how you want to miss versus pitch type matters. Direction & path matter.

You should only read so much CLA. The rest should be learned by actually doing it. Rich in theory is a great way to write a textbook. Rich in application is called coaching. Know enough to get started. Learn the rest as you go.

Before engaging in conversation, I try to ask myself: “Do I want to be interesting or interested?" @mikelinch Being interesting is about me. Being interested is about them. Real connections happen when curiosity outweighs ego.

It's the final day of the draft which feels like a perfect time to show some appreciation for the folks with their boots on the ground that accomplish a seemingly impossible task every year: area scouts. None of this would be possible without their work.
