So very true. Too many pitchers want to worry about their mechanics, when in reality a simple change to their target will autocorrect any misses. Let the body organize itself. The only additional comment I would add is generally make the adjustments small. If you are missing by 18-24 inches, don't move your target that much. Move is 4-6 inches and see what adjustment happens and keep adjusting. Great Video!

I am a scout

Very helpful, I wish I would've watched this video this morning!!!🤣

Greatest Lefty and maybe greatest period

Poetry in motion

Beautiful!

This popped up as a suggested video. Great explanation. Super easy to digest and apply. Thanks for making baseball better!

Should we generate high spin rate for SSW sinker? Or slightly lower spin rate like pronating sinker?

Can you explain why? Cus we want our hips to go first

Extension... A cut above the rest... LIVE! BREATHE! BLUE!⚾️💙

Nice advice at the end

Since when the fuck did they change a slider to a sweeper is vacuum you clean with a slider is a mean pitch that moves with a greatly deal of velocity yall are cancel culture woke it’s a fucking slider and always will be quit trying to sound like more then what you know

Would LOVE to see a full bullpen of you or one of your trainees

I see that there is another one of these for a seam shifting sinker. For this dot balls sinker are we pronating it instead of cutting it?

All of you showing how to grab the ball for different pitches fail to show how you release it and what you do with your fingers, disappointing!

I love the dots, thank you for showing how they should spin with the dots. It helps me to know that I know what im doing

Another question. How do some sinkers drop with seam shifted wake (where guys supinate it) while other sinkers disobey seam shifting and just heavily pronate it and that still drops?

Thank u very much for this! Im 15 and very into baseball science for pitching and like throwing in my yard. I have an iPhone. How can i tell if my spin efficiency is good enough? I dont know how to eyeball 40%, 85%, etc. I like seam shifted wake effects and want to throw seam shifting sinkers, changeup, and sweepers, especially since I find comfort in a lower arm slot. (I have seen more success with pronation and a one-seam grip, but maybe pitches will blend better if I cut them all and stay true to seam shift).

Why were people telling me to make it spin completely opposite back then? Basically making the dot face the batter

❤❤❤❤ It feels good

what’s the movement on it?

Cringe.

What are you holding in your hands?

That leg kick & that stretch. Arguably, the best lefty of all time.

Why are u in my recommendations? Why are u in such a weird green room? Who are u?

Ahhh the forbidden salmon technique. I see you have been studing tho old ways.

Im gonna do this in the bathroom. Take a mean ol 💩

May I ask what does this work on exactly?

Bro what is this for ? I need context

Are you getting downward movement or arm-side movement with these?

what is it for

How many reps and sets do you recomend weekly

The leg kick but.. the way shows you the ball but it just doesn’t matter at all hahaha

On the weightlifting side, I also agree. I worked out a ton in H.S., but my buddies and I had no idea what we were doing. This was the 1997-2001 window, so finding workouts on the internet wasn't a thing ... we were probably buying Men's Health and Maxim magazines 🤣 I was a 5'10" 155 lbs shortstop my senior year in high school. By the end of my freshmen year in college, where our team had strength coaches that built our workouts, managed our progression, and were in the weight room with us every day, I was 175 lbs. By the end of my sophomore year, 185 lbs. If I could have done those types of workouts my junior/senior year in high school, I'm sure I would have been at least 10 lbs heavier, put up better numbers, and got recruited to more schools.

great video! I didn't start taking school seriously until my Junior year in high school ... many of the schools that were recruiting me had really high academic standards, even for recruited athletes. I had to take the ACT/SAT multiple times, plus take an evening prep course to get my math scores higher. Not paying attention and fing off in middle school/high school almost burned me.

Can you make a video on how to throw a good 2seam? i felt like i’ve tried everything and it still doesn’t move. Thanks.

You don't get a very good view of the ball in his hand

is there a cheat code for too much depth on curveballs? let's say i want less spin and more velo with my curveball.

How do you stop kids from tilting glove side when pitching

ive heard you say several times that 1seammers are better for high spin efficencies. The best one seam was zack brittons in my opinion and his effincency has necer been above 85% so i dont really see why a 2 seam would be better (2 seam offers more run while 1seam offers more drop). Note that i understand that its easier to catch seam shift with a 1seam orientation and my doubt is about why would 2 seams be better at lower efficencies.

Great video. Thanks. 👍

These aren't sweepers. They're sliders. They're all sliders.

The kehds wicked! Pahk was roaring.... GO SOX!

So many disgusting back door sliders

No wasted motion with maximum torque.

Smooth as silk

nice vids

So you throw this like a fastball and let the seams do the work or is there some manipulation with the ring finger? Just found your content. Great stuff!

I'm confused. At 1:32 you said gyro (more dot facing you) would kill depth (unless I misheard). At around 2:51 you said the more the dot faces you (more gyro) the "more" depth you're going to get. Which is correct? If i'm looking to throw a gyro slider like Daniel Hudson :28 mark here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZ3Rq4mio9iYl5I where do I want that dot facing and does an in-the-horseshoe or maybe 2 seam grip work better for that? I do have some understanding of spin and seam orientation. Thanks
