The Decision

Image
This much is clearly obvious when coaching, you will make tough decisions. What needs to be most obvious is that those decisions needs to be focused on what is best for the TEAM. When any decision is being made the coach must always be concerned with what is best for his team in the short term and try to balance it with what is best for the long term. I have faced this recently with the Legion program that I am coaching. As a coaching staff we need to narrow the squad down to 16 or 17 players for this summer. The difficulty comes from the process or narrowing this number down. First off tryouts were clearly more difficult than I had thought. Getting a good look at players in the field as well as at the plate is a difficult thing to do with only a couple of hours to spare.  Decisions need to be made and I find myself dreading the idea of telling a player that he is not good enough to play on my team after only seeing him for 4 hours and potentially 40 swings again...

Playoffs and Building a Winning Team

As much as the team struggled, slogged, and lost throughout the season I knew that if we played our best heading into the playoffs that we had a great chance to compete and challenge the higher seeds in the playoffs. It wasn't easy to get to this point in the season, but I believe that the team is peaking at exactly the right moment. After coaching for a couple of seasons I find myself being more and more honest with the ability of players on each of my teams. I feel that when the season breaks and the teams head into the grind of the year it becomes pretty clear whether the team has talent or not.

One of the biggest obstacles that the team had to overcome was something that I did not anticipate at all, staying focused, positive, and alert. Throughout the season the team struggled to put together big wins sometimes falling 1-2 plays short of victory. Throwing strik...

Swing Analysis Miguel Cabrera

Swing Analysis Miguel Cabrera Miguel Cabrera Inside Swing Today I am going to be analyizing Miguel Cabrera's swing. More importantly I will be looking at a couple key parts of effective hitters swings over the next couple of weeks. I am extremely interested in looking into what makes these hitters so effective and trying to take what they can do and pushing these concepts onto my own teams.  After looking at Cabrera's swing a couple obvious things pop up right away. 1. He is an absolute stud 2. He is super calm with his swing. 3. He is a monster when it comes to attacking the baseball. In the Gif above you can see him just pulling in his hands to make room for inside fastballs. What is interesting about this is what he does not lose power when he does clear his hands for the baseball. Head is down on the ball, and he uses his hips to clear out for his hands.  Here is another view of his swing. This time from the side of it. Notice how he is able to l...
