Just talk ball. During the game, talk through thought processes, see if you can pick any tips on the opposing pitcher, talk sequences on hitters in the lineup. Just talk ball more.

About to start my 5th year of affiliated baseball. Spent 3 years in Indy ball. If I never got picked up in ‘21 that was going to be my last year of ball. Didn’t think I would ever get picked up. You just never know what’s around the corner if you can keep a jersey on your back.

**Huge pet peeve of coaches** Just a normal bullpen, not pitch design or anything. Throws a good metric pitch for an auto take ball, coach emphatically says “great pitch” It’s not a great pitch, it’s a ball. Hopefully not giving old man shouting at clouds kinda vibe

Coaches, especially coaches of high school athletes and down. Baseball and your program aren’t the only things your athletes care about. Honesty for some it may not even be the first thing on their list. They have many other interests, and many other stressors in their lives.
