“For me, it’s not just about throwing harder — it’s about how I’m recreating that intensity in the low-stress reps so when the game comes, I’m already there. My off-season isn’t separate—it’s part of the season’s rhythm.”

“Numbers can get you in the door—but coaches want to see if your tools translate to the game. Be consistent, compete, and play baseball: run hard, execute, create action, and show how you help a team win.”

“We pour a lot into getting rankings right because they matter—but the number isn’t the point. Compete, perform, and make it undeniable on the field.”

“Patience, head down, keep working. If you’re good enough, somebody’s going to find you. The tools matter—but can you play baseball, execute, and contribute? That’s what translates.”
