I get do what I love and don’t have to do anything. I get to help young athletes achieve their goals and work towards their dreams!!

I've played professional baseball. I've coached collegiate baseball. I've evaluated thousands of high school players over the last 12 years. Here are a few baseball truths I've learned: • Failure is inevitable. How you respond to it is a choice. • The game rewards resilience far more than talent gives it credit for. • Body language is visibly LOUD. • You never know who's watching. • Talent gets you noticed. Consistency gets you recruited. • Nobody cares how good you were last week. • The players who blame others rarely improve. • Confidence comes from preparation, not motivation. • The game owes you nothing. • Coaches trust competitors before they trust tools. • Your teammates know if you're real. • Baseball has a funny way of exposing excuses. • The best players are usually obsessed with improvement, not attention. • Nobody remembers your excuses. They remember your actions. Build your floor. Chase your ceiling. ⚾️

Parents: If your child can't find 30 mins outside team practice to work on their game daily, then they're just interested in success and they're not really committed. Which is OK. Just help them find the thing/sport they are interested in and will commit too.

Elon Musk is not stealing from you. Gavin Newsom is stealing from you. Karen Bass is stealing from you. Tim Walz is stealing from you. Elizabeth Warren is stealing from you. AOC is stealing from you. Becoming wealthy does not make you evil. The people who take from you, promising to fix problems and then enriching themselves while trying to get you to hate those they're taking the money from... are evil.

Hitters: 3 truths GUARANTEED to happen in the box: 1️⃣ Pitchers will make good pitches in tough locations at times 2️⃣ Umpires will make occasional bad strike calls 3️⃣ Hitters will either make excuses or make adjustments! ✅ The great ones stay composed, focused & adjust!! #BaseballTruth

Little League/Rec Ball definitely had its benefits and can be very productive in a player’s development!!

Don’t worry about Elon becoming rich with his own money. Worry about politicians becoming rich with your money.

Attitude impacts effort, effort impacts outcomes. If you want things to get better, start with your attitude. Make your mindset your advantage.

Either I’m going to MAKE IT… or I’m going to MAKE IT… or I’m going to MAKE IT. No Plan B. Just WORK. FAITH. CONSISTENCY. LOCK IN. The next chapter is different. 💯🔥

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!

Elite players don’t need a “why” every day. They already understand the assignment. Discipline, preparation, and execution drive them. They show up, do the work, and handle business.#ProcessOverMotivation

“Coach Feel Good” here, as some call me🤣 and apparently it’s not meant as a compliment, jumping on my soap box for a sec… Tired of observing coaches coach their teams based on the score of the game, highly energetic when up and pouting when down with no communication to their team. It’s interesting to me that coaches preach “development” but aren’t developed themselves in the parts of baseball that matter the most; positive mentality, body language and emotional maturity in times of adversity. It’s the intangibles that matter and the little things that should be coached up whether up or down. With the direction that baseball is going in, these are the things that matter as the player develops and not many can coach it because score matters more than positive mentality, body language and learning to be emotionally mature when adversity hits. Ok jumping off now!! Coach Feel Good out!! #PayAttention #thelittlethingsmatter

Some life lessons we’ve learned over the years: • Never trust someone who only shows up to the discussion when they “disagree” or have something pessimistic to say. • Until you are perfect, which BTW will be never, you shouldn’t be talking down on others weaknesses unless you’re providing solutions. • Folks love to give “constructive criticism” but are generally awful at receiving it. • The best lessons in anything come from experience but without opportunity, experience is impossible (remember this truth sport coaches). • Waiting for the “right time” is often an opportunity missed. • Talk is talk, action is where it’s at. • “The Process” never ends. Trust it and keep moving forward. • Things rarely go as planned but go exactly how they were meant to go. • Our way is not the only way. Their way is not the only way. What you find works for you is the way. • Change isn’t always necessary but sometimes it’s necessary for growth.

Recruiting is a GRIND — for the player AND the family. Stay PATIENT. Stay LOCKED IN. The right coach will see the WORK, the SACRIFICE, and the LATE NIGHTS. Parents: Keep BELIEVING. Players: Keep WORKING. All it takes is ONE coach to believe in you. 💯

Odds of playing baseball at each level: ⚾ Make Varsity: 20% ⚾ Play College Baseball: 7% ⚾ Get Drafted: 0.5% ⚾ Reach MLB: 0.03% The percentage gets smaller at every level. What's the next level you're trying to reach?
