Tigers Prospect Jackson Jobe averages 97mph ⛽️ Here are the 3 keys to his delivery: 1. The drift and drop As he goes into his leg lift, notice how straight his back leg is. This sets him up to create a lot of energy and force as he goes into the drop (load). Along with keep the back leg straight into leg lift, he also gains ground towards home. This allow him to initiate linear momentum while also setting himself up for the load. 2. Hip to shoulder separation During the stride phase he does a great job of rotating the pelvis into foot plant while staying closed with the upper body. His ability to stay level with the shoulders and stacked puts him in a good position to rotate instead of push. 3. Rotational velocity of the chest Staying closed with the torso into foot plant plays a large role in rotational velocity of the chest. Think of separation like pulling a rubber band back. That pull back is creating tension and a stretch that will accelerate once it’s let go. Jackson does an exceptional job of this, allowing him to rotate the upper body extremely well. RECAP 3 keys to Jobe’s delivery: 1. The drift and drop 2. Hip to shoulder separation 3. Rotational velocity of the chest It all starts with the beginning of the delivery. Getting the first move right has a positive effect on the rest of the delivery. Jobe is a great example of one good move effecting the next one and the next one. FLATGROUND Pitching

Try this throwing progression with plyos or a baseball: - Ground throws - Knee throws - Ten toes - Figure 8 rocker - Regular This is great for guys looking to improve their spinal movement capability. In addition to working on your movement through mobility work, this is a great way to test the limits of your ranges in the throw. When you get to your regular throws you’ll notice how much easier it is to get in and out of positions. Give it a try and let me know what you think!

Little friendly competition between 2 uncommitted ‘26 arms from Liberty HS. Justin Lavine vs. Brock Bowman The game rules are simple. The players will alternate pitch for pitch. I called the pitch they had to throw. If it was in/touching TrackMan zone, they received a point. Bonus during last round. 3 points for a velo minimum and in zone pitch. It was a tight score with Brock coming out on top! Both guys had one of their better command days. Justin with a command+ score of 86 and Brock with a 106. D1 average is 82 and MLB average is 100! Sometimes you need the competitive juices flowing to enhance focus and performance!

✅ +3 MPH ✅ +5” more of depth ✅ +1.6” of HB In a matter of 1 pitch! High school senior making impressive change to slider with slight grip change. Old grip: - Holding outside of ball - Fingertips too far over seams New grip: - Off-set 4 seam - Fingertips “hugging” seams - Ball torqued in hand Sometimes all it takes is a subtle change.
