    Best Ideas for breaking in new glove quickly

    DD has a new A1000 catchers mitt because old glove has seen about 3 seasons of use . 1st tournament next weekend. I grew up oiling the crap out of my gloves and leaving it tied up for week or two with ball in it. What everyone's best advice for best break in in minimum time

    Bat waggle?

    I see absolutely nothing wrong with her "waggle" . Almost every hitter has a mechanism that help them time out their hitting. I think it's a matter of coach having to out their "two cents in" . Unless its affecting her, stick with it

    Team Financial Disclosures

    My DD plays 16U and on her third TB team. The 1st two were startups and just so girls could play. Her current team is a well established team, part of an organization where all aspects (training, coaching, level of play) are leaps and bounds ahead of where she started. My main question is her...

    Intentionally throwing at a base runner

    I was a catcher for many years. I would field the bunt, take the step, if necessary, to create inside throwing lane. Then throw to whichever fielder is covering . If the runner is inside baseline more than 1/2 way to base and either gets hit or interferes with fielder inside baseline on a...

    Throwing Motion

    DD is a 14 yrs old catcher who plays 1st & 3rd when not catching. I've always stressed to her as a catcher to get rid of ball quickly, even at the expense of some ball speed. The past year she has been experiencing some elbow discomfort and have been watching to try and find something. Travel...

    Well....Sh*^

    Live on Long Island and have heard some of the rationale on trying to get season going but truly believe we need to look at big picture. Sucks especially for seniors who are going to lose their last opportunity at competitive sports. Just dont see it happening. All of us unfortunately must deal...

    DOES YOUR GLOVE WORK

    DD is a 14U catcher who started in LL at age 9. Glove work is really good and in all honesty has probably affected her blocking skills because she feels she can pick anything, and usually does. Just started with a new team over winter and they immediately starting working on and improving her...

    Heavy balls? Total control balls?

    I think they are great as a warmup before games. 6-8 just to make them swing full strength plus square up on ball. Also the limited space aspect makes them a simpler drill. Just make sure you have some pace on them and dont just lob them in

    Best balanced 2020 bat?

    I dont see anyone mentioning the Axe Avenge in any of these discussions. I realize they are fairly new to the market but the design is gaining widespread popularity in the baseball including MLB. My daughter used the Axe Element 33/21(Aluminum) as a 12U player and was pleased with pop and...
