USC Infielders working on creating space and closing space How well can you work on the X? Your feet create the hops you get, you dance to the song the game plays The best infielders have the best feet and find a way to be on time every time #PicknPivot

Mookie Betts flat pad work Big emphasis on the catch here — two hands, out front, eyes down, catch it in the kill spot Reminder, this is only one part of your prep work. Still got angles, feet, arm, etc… to get ready for game time #PicknPivot #STdrills

Japanese Infield Drill Check the timing of the left foot, not early or late but on time Next move post catch it direct to target, no wasted movement with half moon Love the exaggerated height some of them have here #PicknPivot

Phillies minor league infielders getting work in Check out their angles and ability to play with one hand. There is freedom and confidence in playing one handed Note the lefty fungo, important to get GB’s from both sides of the plate #PicknPivot

Anthony Volpe dominating the small details on each rep Clear focus on the catch and transfer here. Gets to the common exchange point on each rep Great rhythm/timing into each hop and momentum to target. Direction > Distance

Working on the fundamentals early in the fall Diamond Dogs Simple cue to make sure we catch it out front especially with the paddle: “hold the line” Don’t let your glove retreat until you catch it #PicknPivot

Go find yourself a wall and get better today Want to play at the highest level, you better be able to defend. There’s only 30 DH’s in the world, take pride in your defense You don’t need anybody else. Ultimately, it’s your career. How good do you want to be? #PicknPivot

Luis Arráez kneeling backhand barehand work with the tennis ball Sometimes we need to over exaggerate getting our eyes behind our glove. Working fast is great but it means nothing if we don’t catch it We can’t catch what we can’t see #PicknPivot

Below avg. arm strength yet one of best defensive SS in the game — how’s Swanson do it? • Angels • Utilizes slide to stop & redirect momentum • Uses long hop when needed • Internal clock • High volume of 2 step pattern #PicknPivot

Luis Arraez early work with the flat pad Notice everything is caught out front with his eyes down It’s important to have a routine to get you ready for the game. Everyone has different needs; therefore, everyone’s routine should be different #PicknPivot

Two great drills to work on your hands when stuck in small spaces during the winter Great daily warmup as well, get the hands and eyes working. Stay loose, be water How many times can we interact with the baseball everyday? Both drills come from @troskybaseball #PicknPivot

Volpe & Jazz taking GB’s in the shift Important to take reps in the shift to get used to angles, reads, distances, spin, throws, & communication Note the side flip to fungo hitter - little more realistic to a game rep #PicknPivot #STdrills
