The conventional method to ⬆️ blocking range is to raise your COM in your stance. Consequently, this takes you further away from high frequency/low range blocks over the plate. The positions many advocate as more “athletic” or optimal for blocking is actually quite the opposite.

Switching to a cutter helped solve my own command issues with the fourseam fastball because I had low spin efficiency.
I would never have pitched in the big leagues otherwise.

This has been my coaching approach since day1 especially when it comes to drill selection.Doing 20 different drills doesn’t create mastery,it creates chaos.Have a few drills that are your go to and perfect them. Often times, the simplest drill is the most productive #catchingiq

Timing is key to receiving; you can start below the ball but if you don’t stay there through your whole move you get a choppy down/up 🔀 move instead of one fluid motion up thru the ball. Here’s the difference and when it clicked for my guy last year #catchingiq #catchingdrills

Here’s a simple drill, but one of my favorites to work each corner of the zone. Each of these spots are the toughest spots to get strike calls. I use this as a prep for machine receiving or pre bullpen work. #catchingiq #catchingdrills #collegebaseball

This is the kind of glove movement I look for… subtle, firm, and back to the strike zone. Excessive movement is just that… excessive! One of the things I’ve been saying a lot this year… “Just because we CAN do something doesn’t mean we SHOULD.” #catchingiq #noswagneeded

Just finished our preseason camp with @OwlzNoCo… some of my thoughts from camp… Catchers, bring energy for your team; help guys compete by being competitive yourself. #catchingiq #nocoowlz #catchers #pioneerleaguebaseball #indyball #MiLB

My catchcher velo jumped to 85 mph. Followed it with an 84 mph throw. I’ve moved up 3 mph in 2 months with CatchingIQ. #uncommitted #recruit #baseball @BUncommitted @D1Uncommitted @CoastRecruits @PSCLUncommitted @FlatgroundApp
