Go watch college games and see what those guys look like and see what that level of play truly is   Go find hall of famers of guys that have been all stars and have been healthy. Those guys 9 times out of 10 will be connected.   (on emulation) Guys in the latin countries are really good at that. They see Pedro and try and throw like Pedro, its definitely a benefit to them. They get to experiment and see how their body moves.   I dont want them to be robots and i dont want to have to tell them every single thing. I cant be out on the mound so at some point you have to figure it out yourself.   My job is to eliminate my job, to be your own best pitching coach.   We use the radar gun for average velocity. They may peak at 90 but their average sits at 86. If their average keeps creeping up, we know the plan we have in place is working. We try to collect as much data is possible   One of the most common problems we see now is that kids cannot make basic fundamentally sound movement patterns   When in doubt, always return to athleticism.   We need to better ourselves so we can better our players   Resources ABCA Fighting Monkeys Winter Texas Baseball Ranch Coaches Clinic   Contact Info Coachwallace@texasbaseballranch.com @veloplus21     Website and Social Media sites for the show www.aotcpodcast.com Twitter @aotc_podcast Facebook facebook.com/aotcpodcast Instagram aotc_podcast Contact Info for Jonathan Twitter @j_gelnar7 Email jgelnar7@gmail.com Learn more about your ad choices.
