Yelling at players-nope
Cussing at players-nope
Being a passive aggressive smart ass to players-nope
Clearly explaining expectations and standards-yep
Sitting players on the bench when they don't meet expectations and standards-yep.
Playing time is the reward and lack of playing time is the punishment.
For it to work.
Every player must be held to the same standards.
Your least talented player will advertise the strengths of your culture.
Your most talented player will advertise the weaknesses of your culture.

What’s the most important life lesson that ⚾️ has taught you that you’ll carry off the field forever?!

Could not believe what one of our assistant coaches found in the shed today.
It’s an Easton metal torpedo bat. Very old. Clearly the torpedo barrel is not a new concept.

The #1 separator I see with High Schoolers?
Weekly reminder after training HS players this weekend..
Size. Strength. Explosiveness.
It’s not just skill — it’s physicality.
Eat more. Out-eat your high metabolism.
(Yes, I used that excuse too.)

This was a tough video to make. I feel it’s necessary to say. I see kids everyday take it for granted.
Regret is a killer.
This is what they mean by leave it on the field.

This applies to all levels of baseball! Stop blaming your coach and prove them wrong… No matter how good of a defender you are, no scholarships are given to guys who cant find barrels. #fact #greenlight

Hitters
Refuse to fall behind in the count with runners in scoring position.
Use all three of your swings.

What the HLP leader and crew can’t break down or explain is how Bonds is driving his back foot and hip rotation generate power because they don’t fully grasp how the lower half leads and pulls the torso into contact. It all starts with that inside toe pressure—setting the shin angle and creating the stretch. As the leg turns, the torso follows.
The key focus should be on driving the knee down, not spinning the foot and falling backwards like they demonstrate. The real difference lies in the drive—the foot needs to press into the ground, not spin out like a car peeling out. Even with all the power, without proper ground contact, it’s wasted. The back foot reveals everything—just look at the alignment from shoulder to knee, it’s the little details that make all the difference. Deep barrels are created by how well the feet move.
