Friday, July 27, 2012. Focus Before.Focus During! Hello Passion for Pitching Family! There were a couple things I noticed about not only the nights game but also the entire time I have been with the Cardinals Organization. The young starting pitchers are really not sure how to get themselves ready mentally or physically before a start. Sometimes they don't really even know what to do during a game as well. So what do you think happened next? That's all for now Passion for Pitching! Saturday, July 21, 2012.

passionforpitching: Playing Catch
http://passionforpitching.blogspot.com/2012/07/playing-catch.html
Wednesday, July 18, 2012. Most of the shooters hit every shot from every spot on the court during warm-ups. This is the same for pitchers. How would you expect to throw all your pitches in a professional game with the pressure turned up when it is tough to even throw all your pitches in a game of catch? Ok, that's all for now.Happy Pitching! Labels: passion for pitching. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Passion for Pitching DVDs. Follow me on the Web. San Diego, California, United States.

http://passionforpitching.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 10, 2011. Top Two On My List. It is June 10th and I am three days away from completing my fourth extended spring training with the St Louis Cardinals! I was speaking with some of the pitchers today and I was giving them a goodbye speech and all of my precious words of wisdom! Be honest, do you think you could handle that? I take my hat off to these young kids down here because they are doing things I really don't know if I would have been able to handle when I was their age. It takes som...

Monday, November 14, 2011. How I Conquered The Impossible cont. He told me that if it is as bad as I am describing it and I was not able to pay the thousands of dollars it would have cost to go through his program, then I should simply quit. He told me there is nobody who can get better from the position I was in and it would be best to just quit trying. Ok, no more soap box for now. Hope all is well in your pitching world and I am sure we will talk soon. Keep pitching! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

http://passionforpitching.blogspot.com/2012/07/umpires-dont-exist.html
Friday, July 20, 2012. We lost a tough one tonight in Elizabethton against the Twins Organization. One long, rough inning sealed our fate. Isn't that funny in the game of baseball? But it brings up an amazing learning experience I wanted to share with you. The title of this Blog is Umpires Don't Exist. For two reasons. One, is an effective velocity reason which I will explain shortly. The other, is a focus and mindset reason which I will also expand upon. So as a pitcher your job is to make sure and keep...

passionforpitching: February 2012
http://passionforpitching.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 14, 2012. Why do we go through injuries? Why do pitchers go down from all over the world each season? Why do we have 12 year old kids getting Tommy John Surgery? Why is a 17 year old senior in high school dealing with surgery in a time of his life he is supposed to be flourishing? Why are some of the young pitchers I work with in the professional levels getting hurt when we monitor them so closely? Is there anything we can do? Is there anything I can do? So where do we go from here?
