Players who practice half heartedly are doing their teammates and program a disservice. If you show up to work and put in minimal work, you get replaced.
In the same setting today, I hit fungos to players from D1, D2, NAIA, JUCO and 9 and 11 year old boys. Our players are special in the way they have embraced the role of being mentors to your Flagstaff kids.

Spring sport student athletes lost 80% of the 20’ season. Conferences and presidents throughout the country want less games for 2021 season. Aren’t we in this business to provide as many opportunities as possible? Especially at the junior college level? Stand up for your athletes
Parents and players have this idea that it’s D1 or bust. As someone who was recruited after the

by D1’s, D2’s and NAIA’s and chose D2, please be aware that there are great coaches and programs in all of college baseball. Pick the right fit.
My wife and I are having a baby in June. For the love of god people stop buying out all of the stores of diapers and wipes. I don’t feel like like taking our newborn out and spraying him with a hose.
We have done some pretty cool stuff here at SW since I was fortunate enough to be hired. More than anyone has ever done. I should publicize it more. But it’s not who I am. And it’s not who I want to coach or my players to become. Just work and take care of as many people we can.
We have 1 position player ranked in the top 50, another in the top 150 and 1 pitcher in the top 150 in the country. It’s cool. I’m happy for them. I think they are just happy the sun is out and they get to compete on the field the next two days. I can’t wait to go coach them.

Came across some Instagram posts that remind us why we love this place so dearly. Remember, these beautiful destinations will still be here for you when this is over so for now...stay home, stay healthy, and enjoy >>
Pretty amazing watching my wife do very well in nursing school while doing such an amazing job raising our boy. Your resilience and commitment is inspiring. So proud of you Malia.
Duke aka “The Bigman” aka “El Duque” is 2 today. Wow. So many wonderful memories already. Malia and I are so happy to be his parents. He brings such joy to everyone. Cannot wait for many more milestones. We love you

Happy 3rd Anniversary
@DeutschmanMalia
! You are the best wife I could of ever imagined to have as well as the best mother to our son. You keep us strong and ready for the next chapter! Proud of who you are and lucky to be able to call you my best friend!
Just curious when kids will stop @ coaches, several coaches on their videos? The culture my staff and I have created is we over me. Our email accounts work. The website is current with the office number. The DM’s work too young bucks. If you’d like our cell numbers, just ask.
5 Years of Marriage and 10+ years together. Grateful for everyday with you. Whoever said you can’t find love in a dim lit bar is full of it… 🍻

5 ball players 🛬 and signed commitment in the last 7 days. 3 from HI, 1 from Alberta, 1 from Vegas. When two of your first questions to a ball player are about their goals and their family, the doors open up.
Seeing some of these 21’,22’ HS I’ve seen committing to D1 schools is a slap in the face to so many juco players that I see that are far superior. Why would you sign 85 with bad mechanics when 88-93 is proven with these juco guys?
Really easy to be enthusiastic and positive in the first week of being part of something new. What really matters is if that same enthusiasm and positivity is carried on day in and day out. How invested are you in whatever you are doing?
If you want us to recruit you, email, DM or call me or have your coach do the same. I have never recruited a player who @ me with 8 other coaches. Is ChatGPT doing this for you?
@SwoccBaseball
now has
@TrackManBB
We are the only NWAC school to have it and one of the few juco’s in the country.
Our recruiting doors for 24’ grads and transfers are wide open. Reach out to us if you’d like your development to be the forefront of our culture.
9 inning CG Shutout on 90 pitches with 0 BB/HBP, 4 hitter doesn’t win the Pitcher of the Week in the NWAC? But 6 1/3 innings 4 k’s, 2 BB does? Makes a lot of sense. Quit doing Player of the Week if you aren’t going to give it to the best stat lines or performances.

Really happy for
@chansoxx4
and his commitment to continue our at Alabama A&M. True student-athlete. Great teammate and loves to be coached. Outstanding human being.
Right or wrong, good or bad adversity will come your way. Can you stand up to it and face it head on or do you make excuses and blame others for your lack of ability to adapt?
10 years ago today we became a couple. I had a little more hair and you still look the same🙏 It has been the best time of my life. To the love of my life

🍻 to the next 10.
Does A-Rod have to be here tonight? I’d rather listen to Bill Walton talk about the mountains, the trees, the Grateful Dead, tell awful stories about his encounters than listen to A-Rod talk commentate baseball.
Finals are over. In order to practice this weekend and get ready for the season opener,we will need to put in hours of field work. Our guys work on the field more than other teams practice.
Transfers and uncommitted 24’s.

is looking to add for the 2024-25 season. Trackman, dorms, scholarship money available for the right fits. DM if interested.

Pretty sure he will be able to play catch with his kids once he becomes a father after throwing 142 on a beautiful day in an amazing baseball climate. Stay in your lane.
At what point will Trumpers realize that wearing a mask indoors at a public place isn’t about their rights? Global Pandemic. Meaning literally nearly everyone can be affected. Wearing a mask will be more productive than you voting again.
Favorite story from Coach was when I was riding shotgun on the way to a game in Anchorage. I said, “Coach are you going to Tony’s Hall of Fame induction?” He said not until Tony starts acting right. Coach had a standard he held everyone too. Rest easy Coach.
I challenged my team to go without social media for a week. They could scroll but not like, comment, retweet or post. During this time the baseball world lost a legendary coach named Mickey D. Mickey was my Uncle and taught me so much about baseball. As much as I wanted to share
Why are they putting 2023 and 2024 kids GPA’s in the headlines of videos? Baseball committee, us college skippers don’t look at middle school cumulative GPA. I must be falling behind the times or am I just too junior college?

Thanks to my assistants over the years especially

for her support and sacrifices.
Noah Sumibcay is a left on left two time all southern region player in the NWAC. He will graduate with an AA. 6.7 runner. Very good base runner. Plays OF and 1st base. Looking for a 4 year.

What hurts the MLB more, punishing the players on the Astros or not punishing the players on the Astros? To me, this clearly isn’t a baseball integrity issue from the commissioners office but rather a business decision as in $$$ decision to do what they did with the players.
Ball players- everyone sees your body language. Beaver pitcher just pounded his chest (positive energy) and my son less than two years old, put his milk down and pounded his chest. It matters young bucks.
Will never continue to recruit players who boast about scholarship offers they have received from colleges. Once I see those posts,

. That is just not the type of person that fits into my programs culture.
my families loss I knew he would want me to stay committed and lead my team. Mickey you inspired me to be a coach and I’m happy that I can keep our family name in the baseball world. I miss you and I’ll always be “Little Dick”
