Do you recommend the CRBN bat for 14U ? Seems more reasonable, plus have seen that bat used in the College WS

I personally did not like the CRBN 1. I felt it had no pop. A lot of colleges are on deals with brands so that could be too why you’re seeing it so much! I like Marucci Echo DMND for a reasonable bat with good pop.

Good swing but too much head movement, only advice please stop tracing the ball , just keep eye on the contact…

Everybody tries to fix their direction by training and feeling their bat path. Makes sense. The barrel and hands the part you can feel the most. But your path is mostly just following where your body already sent the energy. Posture leaks a little, the energy comes away from the ball, and the barrel goes right along with it. So when you’re pulling off, it usually started before your swing even starts. It started with your posture and where your body was working. Hands, path, posture, energy. They all work together. Clean up the stride, body energy and posture and the barrel falls in line on its own. Typically. The drill in the video is how you train that. Volume up so you catch the cue.

High Pitch Feel (Tire Work) •Shoulder line works downhill → rear elbow slots → barrel on plane. •The tire forces the hitter to hold posture and stay connected, unlike a tee where it’s easy to cheat by dropping hands or rolling over. •Teaches hitters to release the barrel out front with strength and control. •New hitter JulesAmoroso #3 2028 is getting her first dose of high-tire work building the down feel and learning proper shoulder path. Low Pitch Adjustment •Shoulders stay above the ball. •Rear knee drives down and under → creates true tilt and upward barrel path. •The lower the pitch, the more the knee works. Walk-Through Progression •Knee up and stride down with front-foot pressure. •Controls center mass, keeps balance, and prevents collapsing. ✅ Master the high first the low will follow naturally.

Hitting Dumbed Down -Ever feel like you’re dragging the barrel too far when you start your swing? You’re not alone—THIS HITTER struggled with the same issue.” Instead of getting on plane early and driving the ball, the barrel was dragging, getting stuck, and leading to weak ground balls and pop ups the other way THIS HITTERS THOUGHT/ fix? “Think about slicing your shoulder toward the ball. Don’t let your barrel drift too far behind.” “When you ‘slice the shoulder,’ you create a tighter, more efficient turn behind the ball, staying on plane longer and driving through the pitch.” “The result for him? More consistent contact, more power, and the barrel is exactly where it needed to be.” “If you have this issue & Next time you’re in the cage, focus on slicing that shoulder—it could be the key to unlocking your best swing.” “Tag someone who needs this tip, and let’s get to work! 💪⚾””””for those not in at Tampa Bay, I do a remote training via the SEAMSUP APP.

Mookie Betts - Contact Position Voiceover - Drill to replicate this: Feel out where you WANT to be at contact. Barrel, hands and body. (not just bat, many forget this) Get that feeling, now get ready for the pitch and try to time up that exact body and swing move on the ball. Works pretty well! It's like a.. compact swing slash drill, not a punch at it type swing. Hit a double.

Behind the ball is how you get depth AND length out front. (Not one or the other) Here’s what it actually gives you: 1. You swing more connected and deeper. 2. The barrel enters earlier and stays in longer. You get both. 3. Depth behind what buys you length out front. Most guys are picking one or the other. 4. You sling the barrel through. You’re not shoving it or yanking it into the zone. 5. You actually use the ground. Behind the ball you turn. If you’re not using the ground, you’re probably sliding and pulling everything towards the ball. 6. Your bat speed becomes usable. Pushed and pulled bat speed still reads fast vs one pitch one speed. Only one of them shows up on the barrel, in the zone, on time vs pitching. — Cue for your next round: let the ball get deeper than usual, and turn behind a wall. You can scoot close to a net in front of you to get the feeling, too. Then vs moving ball. > Save this for when you need it > Send this to a hitter who needs it right now (And make sure you’re following)

A common hitting flaw that is rarely corrected and can exposes certain hitters at higher levels, is “leaking” … the player’s front side is “running away” from contact prematurely. Sometimes also called “spinning off” the ball. This means energy is escaping the swing because of a chain of events that usually begins with the incorrect action of the stride foot. Correctly engaging the stride foot into the ground, called “foot-plant,” allows the body to efficiently sequence. As a result, the swing is shorter and barrel stays in the hitting zone longer. The BIG key is we have to be able to ***control our front knee*** before starting to swing. If a hitter can control their front knee and their front side a hair longer, stay behind contact, and attack the inside of the ball, it creates more whip.…(bat speed) and improves plate coverage. You might need to watch the video a couple times, because there are various ways to stride that allow the hitter to control their front knee. It is not a one size fits all action. And hitters who have sick power and want to pull the ball intentionally might actually “leak and clear” on purpose. But players who like to stay to middle of the field, might want to see what the initial movement into foot plant looks like. **** Remember, what happens to the front foot (stride foot) AFTER contact has little consequence. Often heavy torque causes it to fly open, or roll on side of foot. That’s all ok.

Learn from a Hitter Who Hit .328 with 22 HR in the SEC 1. Gathers down and back without getting stuck back 2. Loads forward and downhill without getting jumpy forward 3. Initiates his launch move behind the ball like great hitters do I use his swing with many hitters I work with and evaluate.

Apple built a large foundation model and fine-tuned it on multiple tasks. But they are doing something very clever: They load a single model in memory and use different adapters to specialize the model on the fly. I recorded a video to show you how to write the code to do the same thing Apple is doing. I explain everything step by step. Here is what I'll show you in the video: 1. We'll load two datasets 2. Then load a large model 3. Then, we'll fine-tune the model on both datasets I'll use LoRA to fine-tune the model. This process creates two small adapters, each specializing in solving one of the datasets. The base model's original parameters will remain unchanged. From here: 4. We'll generate a list of tasks 5. We'll load the correct adapter to solve each task The large model I'm using needs 346 MB of memory, but I only need to load it once. Each adapter is only 2.7 MB. I only need to load the base model once and pair it with any of the fine-tuned adapters. Minimum memory footprint and I can solve multiple tasks. Hope this helps!

lando explains why certain characteristics of the car has affected him more than his teammate: “we're both very different people. what i rely on is very much feeling through the steering wheel, and that's my primary source of feelings, of how i can drive a car quickly. and as soon as i lack a little bit of that, then i struggle to drive at that top level that i need to. and i've had to work this year on leaning on and exploring other ways to get the lap time out of myself, whether that's more of my feeling through my body or my feet, or trying to work with the team on ways to kind of bring that feeling back through the steering wheel. that's all part of the job”

#GainzDealerTipofTheDay Major Deadlift KEY👇 Sit “BACK” into the hips! ➡️ One of the most common deadlift mistakes I see in a lot of lifters is starting with the hips either too high or too low at the start of the lift. One of my favorite ways to remedy this is to sit back until you feel the load in your glutes. This will create an “anchor” with your hips and from there you call pull your chest up and push with your legs to initiate the lift. If the hips are in the right spot, it will feel like the weight is going to “leverage” itself right off the ground due to the tension felt in the glutes at this time. The hip height on this is going to look different on everyone depending on individual leverages, but the sensation and overall function of the cue will be the same. At the start of a deadlift, we want our hips at the highest they can be with our shoulders in line with the bar. This cue will help to accomplish that! Bookmark this and share it out for me if you found this helpful!

Building a firm front side with Wyndham Clark. When we assessed Wyndham last year, 3D and GRF data showed that his lead side was soft in the downswing with his irons. This caused him to drift toward the target rather than post up and drive his arms. While changes will ultimately be made with a club in his hand, we like to incorporate exercises in the gym that reinforce the feel we are chasing. An overhead medicine ball throw can introduce how “the foot connects to the hand” in that the push from the ground helps accelerate the ball. The legs lead, and the power follows. From there we move to a side-toss into the wall, training a firm, athletic lead foot. That’s the feel we want to encourage in his iron swing. Full video of our session with Wyndham on our YouTube channel.

4 DAY SHOOTING RESET: Day 1 This 4 day reset aims to help players slow down and reinforce their shot. It’s really helpful for Great Shooters that love to be detailed, but also if you aren’t a great shooter to help you build your foundation. Day 1 is about finding our stance (load position) and feeling the sequencing of our shot. The Load Position is the foundation of our shot. A players understanding and feel for their stance is HUGE. Drill 1: Load Position Shooting - Find your stance and start in Load Position, take a breath, lift and shoot with normal pace. We look for straight lift and high follow through on this. Drill 2: 1 Foot Drops - this works on finding our base on the drop, and timing in to lift / shot. Drill 3: 1 Foot Drops w/ Dribble- Add in dribble to work on finding base, ball transfer to shooting hand, timing for shooting off the dribble. SCORING: ONLY COUNT CLEAN MAKES (Swish or hit rim once). For each drill, make 10 from 15’ and 10 from 3. Change Distance and Angle for each shot for variability.

Fernando Tatis Jr is hitting .242 with a 3.5° average launch angle and a career-low 20% pull rate. Everyone has ideas and analysis on how to fix Fernando Tatis Jr’s swing. It’s pretty awful and I can’t take anymore of this, I have to say something because I haven’t seen a single person give the right answer. I’ve seen multiple people talk about timing mechanisms like toe tap, stride, and leg lift in his swing mechanics that have absolutely nothing to do with his problem. That reverting to past timing mechanisms would somehow help him. THEY ARE ALL WRONG Because they’re all looking in the wrong place. This isn’t a stride problem or timing problem. It’s a tilt problem. Stride, leg lift, and toe tap are timing mechanisms. They control WHEN the hips fire not HOW the bat moves through the zone. A hitter with a Sosa leg kick and a no-stride Ichiro stance can produce identical launch angles.Timing has no lever that touches the bat at contact. What actually sets launch angle is attack angle or the vertical direction the bat is traveling at the moment it meets the ball. Swing up through the zone = ball lifts Swing flat = grounders Swing down = choppers Attack angle is the only mechanical input that matters for elevation and attack angle isn’t random. It’s a direct output of shoulder tilt. When the trail shoulder drops below the lead shoulder at contact, the entire swing axis tilts. The bat is now forced to travel upward through the zone. More tilt > steeper attack angle > higher launch angle. Period. Tatis’s attack angle tells the entire story: 2023: +12° attack angle, +1° pull-side direction/25 HRs 2024 : +10° attack angle. -2° oppo direction 21HRs in 104 games 2025: +8° attack angle, 0° direction/25 HRs, healthy 2026: +5° attack angle, −5° oppo direction His swing has flattened AND drifted away from his pull side. Both are tilt collapse. That −5° oppo attack direction is the giveaway. When you lose tilt, your bat doesn’t just flatten it also gets steered toward the opposite field, because a level swing naturally pushes the barrel away from your pull side. He’s not late. He’s not under-striding. His axis collapsed Over the last few years and it’s worse than ever this year. This explains the 20% pull air rate too. Pulling the ball in the air requires positive attack angle AND a contact point out front. (Ramon Laureanos 2025 attack Angle was +14) If you tinker with timing on a flat swing, an earlier contact point just produces a pull-side grounder. The direction changes. The launch angle does not. Let me break it down for you: Stride > Weight Shift > Hip Rotation >TILT > ATTACK ANGLE > BAT PATH > Contact > Launch Angle Stride is four steps upstream. Tilt is the gate. Attack angle is the output that actually moves the ball. So now we know what’s wrong, how do we fix him? Souza and the Padres staff need to focus on the following; 1.Restore 8–12° rear-high shoulder tilt 2.Get attack angle back to +10° to +12° with neutral or +1° pull direction 3.THEN evaluate timing tweaks 4. If someone is telling him to flatten out his swing or to let the ball travel more PLEASE STOP DOING THAT. That doesn’t work for him You cannot time your way to elevation. Fix the tilt. Attack angle returns. Pull air follows. Please watch the video to see how his swing has gotten worse and flatter. We only have bat path data starting in 2023

New Collateral Testing after the BO7 Season 1 Update tldr; Shadow SK seems weaker, VSR is extremely inconsistent, and the XR3 ION still perfectly fine, if all 3 bullets hit. FMJ is inconsistent on snipers, so don't worry about switching your VSR to it. Your best bet is to still hit a headshot for triples and more to connect. There were no changes to snipers in the patch notes. My goal was to test collateral potential without using things like a heavy damage barrel, FMJ, or hitting headshots (considering headshots help a ton with hitting triples and above) to see what it is at a base level I tested all 3 snipers mostly with no attachments, or only with the FMJ fire mod (as the S1 update changed FMJ/Penetration, patch note linked below). I also used the VSR with my gunfighter build that uses the light bolt and short barrel. I assume that if using a sniper with no attachments can register the collaterals, then it should with attachments. I also assumed that 99% of you watching this (and care about collaterals lol) would not be using a damage barrel or FMJ in place of a short barrel or light bolt, and would assume that using both damage barrel and FMJ would help, but again, focused on using a build that most of you will be using anyway.

Was the Peach Belt Conference Freshman of the Year in 2023, and this season he had a career year to the tune of a .369/.498/.693 slash line with 27 XBH (14 HRs), 49 RBIs, 24 SB, and 43 BB to 27 Ks. Athletic build at 6' and 180-pounds. Simple setup in the box - stands tall with a slight bend in his knees and a medium-high handset. Normal stride, hands drift a little bit in his load. Lodise's explosive athleticism is on display both in the box and on the dirt. Compact operation with plus bat speed, consistently gets of quick/tight turns with his hips. Sound approach with advanced barrel skills. Has shown this year the ability to back spin the baseball to all fields, but especially to the pull side where he generates the highest quality of contact. Quick feet with good instincts/ever-improving game clock at shortstop. Plenty of range in either direction, has shown he is comfortable attacking the baseball and throwing on the run/from different arm angles. Would give the arm a 55. Lodise is the first really intriguing name to hit the portal and it will be interesting to see where he eventually lands.

INF Kodey Shojinaga (Kansas Baseball) is an intriguing Sophomore-eligible prospect. Was outstanding as a true Freshman and hit .378/.421/.526 with 11 2B, 6 HR, and 32 RBIs. Also slashed .326/.396/.349 across 11 games on the Cape. Shojinaga was named Co-Freshman of the Year in the Big 12 and earned a Team USA invitation. Medium build at 5'10", 190-lbs with some physicality in the lower-half. Slightly open front side in the box with a normal handset. Holds bat horizontally over his back shoulder with the barrel pointed slightly back. Medium-high leg kick, but the stride itself is small. Little bit of a bat wrap, but he's consistently on time. Average bat speed. Hit over power profile right now, but Shojinaga has an advanced feel for the barrel and plus bat-to-ball skills. Last season, he sported a 93% overall IZ contact rate. Approach is sound, but sometimes chases down/away. Does a nice job of using the whole field and working inside the baseball. Would put a 55 on the pure hit tool. Sound defender at 2B with above average arm strength and makes the plays he needs to make. He has quick hands and some range in either direction. Shojinaga also has experience catching, and got some reps behind the plate this summer for Team USA. Will be interesting to see what it would look like if he focused on catching - actions need refining, but the arm strength is there. Shojinaga will need to really hit, and he's capable of doing so. This July, he profiles as a 5th-8th round pick.

🎥 || Lewis Hamilton after first runs in the SF-26. “Immediately you’re trying to get a feel for anything, feeling through your body, through the G-long, through the vibrations of the seat and the suspension. You’re trying to pick up all these little bits of information in the little time that you have and then just to be in Fiorano, you know, to be at Ferrari, to be here, to know that this is a start of a long journey.” “But one that I know that it just feels right, I think the team is in the best place, it’s been, I think for the time I’ve been here. And seeing everyone so motivated and driven, I think we’re really on it.” “We’ve got a lot of work to do to really make sure we do all the diligence and we really understand this car and we really have to be quick to react, be very dynamic but I feel like all hands are on deck so I’m sure we can do that.”

Jason Calacanis: Anthropic, OpenAI and others are trying to kill OpenClaw Why? Because an open source agent platform is an existential threat to frontier model companies. @jason: “ People are going to say I'm a conspiracy theorist, but the number one goal, I believe, in the large language model, frontier model space, is to kill (OpenClaw). This is a giant movement to stop it, because this is the equivalent of having an open source Android-like player in the market, and that could be incredibly disruptive. Because, I believe, open source is going to win the day on the large language models and take 90% of the token usage, and I think the entire frontier model space could be undercut by open source. And I think they realize that SLMs, the smaller language models that are verticalized now, that will run on desktops and laptops and are even starting to run on the top ones, that is their biggest competitive threat, and I hope it happens.”
