My time at @DrivelineBB was amazing. The access to resources, team of intelligent people, combined with the drive to learn more about how to get players better is unmatched, & I’m happy I could have been a part of it. Next, is Taiwan to work as the @CTBC_Brothers hitting coach.

This is the comment I came looking for. It’s always fun being bilingual and listening to these interviews. I’m always like “hey, that’s not EXACTLY what they said”. Homie never mentioned defending himself, just straight up said he was challenged to a fight so he was down. Haha.

Hablemos de velocidad del bate, o “bat speed”, la habilidad que tiene mayor correlación con el éxito. 🚀

Too many coaches out there trying to make their players perfect at moving slowly under the ilusión of “perfecting mechanics”. Why are pros, pros? It’s simple. They’re stronger and move quicker than you.

I love working with Patrik. There’s baseball, education, & culture involved; my personal “Big 3” Patrik is from Czech Republic 🇨🇿 a place where there’s unconditional love for baseball. I’ll expand on that later. For now, go Patrik, & go Hippos @hrosibrno Big Game, Small World.

A major goal of mine is to help educate the Latin American baseball community on progressive training methodologies, which includes talking about the benefits of training with technology. The easiest place to start for hitting has always been talking exit velocity. @DLespanol

It was a pleasure working with John here at @DrivelineBB the past month. Every week the kid kept getting better, hitting the ball harder, further, and more consistently. John is a hard worker, and most importantly, is a great person to be around. Good luck this season, homie!
