Anytime $800,000 NIL defeats $9,000,000 NIL it’s a win for the sport!

- Go watch Justin Lebron swing a bat.. He’s not max muscle at the plate and leads the country with 9 HR at 180lbs. He sits in the box relaxed & lets his hands fly. Think hammering a nail.. He also doesn’t miss pitches he’s sitting on.
- Imagine walking out to the mound as a freshman in HS & striking out 8 facing a district rival in your first varsity win.. All with your non dominant hand.
- Here’s @Pirates prospect Konnor Griffin (@KonnorGriffin22) smashing this pitch off a college scoreboard when he was 14 years old in 8th grade. The most talented player I’ve ever watched at that age.
00:00 - Good hitters swing every pitch until they see it’s a ball. The take is a reaction.
- The name is Jordan Ballin. I was thrown out of a scouts meeting once for vouching for this guy. He’s hitting .357 as a 18 year old freshman. UTSA on a big win streak. Ballin became a starter 9 games ago & has a hit in every game including a huge two-run double facing Texas A&M.
00:00- Congrats to Texas shortstop Kayson Cunningham (@KaysonCunningha) for getting selected 18th overall by the DBacks! Here’s some video of Kayson when he was 14 at the DBat in Kerrville.
00:00 - 100ish pro scouts & college coaches have followed me on various accounts over the past few weeks. Anyone who thinks posting their clips on X isn’t priority over Instagram or TikTok is missing the boat.
- Most pro scouts out at a ballgame have never signed one single MLB player. This guy Gordon Blakeley has signed countless MLB All Stars & Hall of Famers. Big Papi, Arod, Robinson Cano, Hideki Matsui, Alfonso Soriano, ect.Legendary scout Gordon Blakeley sharing a simple drill that once helped Ronald Acuña Jr. keep his weight back.
- Why did I start helping players & building influence with media? 14 years ago, I was hitting .567 as a freshman in juco & nobody cared so I stopped caring. I realized my calling was to help future players who get overlooked. Many players just need someone to believe in them! ⚾️🔥
- Congrats to Mississippi shortstop JoJo Parker (@Parker2Jojo) for getting selected 8th overall by the Blue Jays! Here’s some video of Jojo when he was 14 with @knightknation4L.
00:00 - The amount of times I’ve seen Christian Moore get rung up on the same exact pitch & could do nothing about it. This time was like, nah nah get your ass back here 😂😂
- Never would’ve thought I’d watch @ZaneDenton3 get his 1st professional strikeout pitching tonight. 😂😂
