Development is a calculated plan! And I LOVE the off season training. Here is 2023 2nd RD Pick Blake Wolters. To start~ Knowing where they are, what their timeline is (MILB’ers/HS/College) and what their goals are, is huge and necessary to begin. Without Divulging into

Remember the time your season got cancelled. Throwing plyo balls into mattresses, lifting with the lights off so no one knew you were there, making concrete weights, and finding a way to get better while the entirety of sports stopped. Enjoy the games, keep going, LFG.

Today we GET to play baseball. But, we don’t have to worry about terror or air strikes. We go about our day and not worry about Nuclear attacks. Do not forget how lucky and fortunate we are, and don’t lose the human aspect of caring for people who don’t get that luxury. 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
