    Timing is Timing ~ It takes training

    Turn the machine up as fast as it will go. Just have her get in the box and pick her foot up and load. Turn it down to 65 and have her bunt. When you turn down to 60 it will seem very hitable. If she struggles with 50, Turn it down to 40 and have her bunt. Turn it up to 50 and have her hit.

    If she is 11 and 1 with a 1.34 ERA does it even matter if she throws 62 or 68? She is winning therefore she is very good. Period.

    Hard to imagine getting a 15 million dollar signing bonus and then get 250 bucks a week. Not sure that type of pay structure is the best for development.

    Player Age when 1 grade lower

    I didn't read while thread. In SoCal "dark" teams will form. So a coach will join up with 2 or 3 other coaches (usually from same organization) with left over players and create a team with the promise that there will be no stealing players. LOL. When my DD was in 8th grade and most of her...

    Hi from Chicago

    Welcome aboard. Chime in often. If you really want some attention post a video of your DD hitting or pitching.

    Many cannot hit off jugs machine set at 70 mph. In fact, I would say most. Many hitters when facing higher velo try to swing harder/faster than their normal tee swing resulting in pulling down and under the ball. Also, hitters tense up when facing velo which actually makes them slower. So...

    The MLB draft is a real dream motivator. 73rd pick overall gets $1,000,000.00 bonus.

    22 players seem like a max number. That would include a couple of pitchers and a couple of catchers that know and accept they are there for throwing BP and catching bullpens and just want to be part of the team.

    Turf Concerns ...

    I would rate the newer well maintained artificial fields as true (no bad bounces)but slower than a good clay field. Some of the older turf fields are super fast with weird kangaroo hops.
