As a baseball scout, there are two concerning hitting characteristics with HS & College hitters that stand out more today than ever before.
1) No Plan At The Plate
Successful hitters don’t just hope to get a hit—they know what pitch they’re hunting, they exercise zone awareness, they know what part of the field they’re trying to use, they know how to work counts, and how they’re going to attack pitch to pitch. They have a plan, they don’t just “wing it.”
If you fail to plan—then plan to fail.
2) Lack Of Competing In The Box
Every pitch is a battle. Fighting off tough pitches. Refusing to get beat. Making the pitcher earn every out. Competing in the box isn’t about the “result”—a hitter can go 0-4, but have four quality at bats. Competing in the box is about your approach, focus, and effort every single pitch.
Yes, swing operation and talent matters, however a “plan” and a “competitive” mindset in the box separate good hitters from the rest.
Never forget . .
Success is never owned. It is only rented, and the rent is due everyday!

The Scouting Classroom #15
WHAT SCOUTS WATCH IN BATTING PRACTICE
One of the biggest misconceptions in baseball is what people think scouts are watching during batting practice.
Fans watch where the ball lands.
Scouts watch how it gets there.
Anybody can get fooled by one loud round.
One long home run.
One ball hit over the scoreboard.
One swing that gets people talking.
But scouting has never been about chasing highlights.
It’s about identifying repeatable ingredients.
Because batting practice gives scouts something valuable:
A controlled environment.
No velocity.
No breaking balls.
No two-strike count.
No game pressure.
Just the hitter and the swing.
And when you remove the variables, the swing starts telling a story.
Scouts begin asking questions:
Is there rhythm?
Is there balance?
Is there bat speed?
Is the barrel accurate?
Does the ball jump differently?
Can the hitter create easy carry?
Is the swing efficient?
Can he repeat it?
Does he stay through the middle of the field?
Can he backspin the baseball?
Can he manipulate the barrel?
Does the body actually work?
Those things matter.
Because tools show themselves before production does.
You can hit a long BP home run and fool people.
I've seen players put on unbelievable batting practice shows and completely fall apart once the game started.
And I’ve also seen future big leaguers take quiet rounds where the average fan saw nothing special.
But scouts noticed. Why?
Because the ingredients were there.
The rhythm.
The bat speed.
The timing.
The barrel accuracy.
The ease of operation.
The body control.
The foundation.
Good scouts learn to separate results from ingredients.
Because distance is easy to see.
The swing underneath it takes experience.
The swing tells you a story long before the stat line ever does.
That’s Scouting

Every HS player should pay attention; there’s more than one path to D1 college baseball. Go where you’ll have a chance to compete. Go where your wanted. Find your fit.

Leslie’s story is awesome. High school catcher from Butler who pitched at a showcase and got a spot at D3 Grove City College. Became an All-American there, and just threw 150 pitches in 2 games in the ACC tournament. @Pitt_BASE romanticism: increasing #H2P

Say it louder.
And say it particularly loud for corporate America.
John Harbaugh nailed it: "Leadership is serving other people."
"It's helping other people accomplish what they want to accomplish. It's make a difference in their lives."
Great leaders believe they serve the team.
They know that leadership is a responsibility to serve.

I was raised in a baseball culture where you earned EVERYTHING.
Playing time.
Trust.
Respect.
Opportunities.
Leadership.
Blue collar meant earning respect through work, not demanding it through words.
Nothing was handed to you.
Nothing was explained 14 different ways to protect your feelings.
If coaches got after you, you got tougher.
You worked harder.
You proved them wrong.
Now too many athletes want accountability-free environments where every hard conversation is called “toxic” and every uncomfortable moment becomes someone else’s fault.
Soft cultures create fragile players.
The real world doesn’t care about your excuses, your feelings, or who you blame.
It rewards toughness.
Consistency.
Discipline.
Accountability.
Competitiveness.
Always has. Always will.
