    * Direct connections and recommendations to college coaches.

    * Access to honest feedback from coaches.

    * Player development support throughout the recruiting process.

    * Ongoing communication and guidance for both recruitment and player improvement.


    Episode notes:


    1. Consider Position Projection


    - Evaluate the player's projected position in college, not just their current position.

    - Up-the-middle players are valued differently than corner players due to defensive impact.


    2. Understand Context


    - Consider how the player fits the team's home park dynamics.

    - Some coaches recruit based on how their home park plays, influencing player selection.


    3. Batting Practice


    - Focus on hitting to all fields, not just pulling the ball.

    - Showcase hitting ability by staying up the middle and demonstrating power without solely focusing on home runs.


    4. Metrics


    - Metrics are a starting point, not the sole determinant of a player's potential.

    - Coaches prioritize hitting ability and swing decisions over metrics.


    5. Movement


    - Coaches look for good movement and a swing that translates to the next level.

    - Individualized stances and hitting styles are valued, focusing on hitting consistency.


    6. Mental Game


    - Demonstrate competitiveness and resilience in the face of failure.

    - Show a growth mindset, situational hitting, and positive team interaction.


    7. Power and Speed


    - Coaches value players who can reach second base independently through power or speed.

    - Power includes hitting doubles, not just home runs.


    8. Left-Handed Hitters


    - Left-handed hitters are often preferred due to swing aesthetics and matchup advantages against right-handed pitchers.


    - Avoid overemphasizing metrics; focus on overall hitting ability.

    - Do not solely rely on physical attributes; mental game and team dynamics are crucial.


    Tips for Efficiency


    - Emphasize hitting to all fields during batting practice.

    - Prioritize consistency and situational hitting

    - Foster a growth mindset and positive team interactions.
