It’s a shame that to capture every aspect of what happens in a pitch or swing you have to spend $10-$20k on force plates, $30-$50k on motion capture, $20k on pitch tracking tech, & more on EMG for muscle activation. If only one system could do it all… COMING SOON
If you’re a high school player you have to be honest with yourself. Don’t go to camps and showcases if you’re not at least close to the caliber of player at the level of school you want to talk to.
Save your money and spend it to train until you become that caliber.
Clayton Ratliff just hit 90.3mph… and had his jr high graduation in the same 24 hour span. He’s been training with @PDPAthletics since August 2024 and has gained 14mph in that time. Just an absolute specimen with an incredible work ethic.
#Rays reliever Chase Solesky pitched on the mound at Tropicana Field in 2015 during an exhibition game for East Coast Pro.
Eleven years later, he just made his debut on that very same mound, after eight long years in the minors. My story 👇🏻
Andry Lara came into @PDPAthletics this offseason and we focused on getting him more stable in the ground. Improving balance into the peak of his leg lift allows him to be more repeatable in his delivery. We also refined the pitch mix which helps the K-Rate.
Paul Toboni is a godsend man. Seaver King's average exit velo is up to 93.5 and his chase rate is 25%. Jackson Kent's fastball is up 3 mph. Andry Lara has doubled his K-rate while halving his walk-rate.

Rough look when a manager lies in his press conference about conversations with a player that you know didn’t happen because there wasn’t even a conversation…
My son is currently 28 hours old and is rolling on his side on his own. At this pace we’ll probably be ready to mocap him with @kinebase by the end of the month
Parker Messick has been an anchor of the @CleGuardians rotation to start the season 🔥

The first time you see 94, it’s probably pretty hard to time up. The 1000th time you see it, it’s probably not as hard to time up. If you give a high school baseball player 1000 swings off a machine throwing 95, I bet they start to figure out at some point.
Radar guns are a lie.
95 is really 91.
Look it up. It’s @mlb marketing.

Community note
MLB average fastball velocity has increased from 91.4 mph in 2008 to 94.3 mph in 2026 using consistent release-point measurements; radar gun changes account for only 1-2 mph of difference, not the full claimed inflation. baseballamerica.com/stories/mlb-ve…baseballamerica.com/stories/the-me…

College coaches are talking about how rare it is to have access to force data and motion capture. Little do they know that @kinebase is about to change the game.
