Defense its all about reps. Every player should get 30 to 40 ground balls a practice. Half time we dont even throw to a base, just field and drop in a bucket. Pitching teach, preach enforce mechanics. Separate hands when leg comes up. Also most kids that are starting pitching best to have them start from the stretch at all times and with ball in thier throwing hand. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk
We are 6 months into kid pitch. Game is alot slower. Kids get really bored quickly on defense. Teams that succeed have versatile players. Lilshep has thrown 200 pitches since we started 130 for strikes. He also has only struck out once in 30 plate appearances. Hitting .450 with obp of .680 , fielding percent 92%.

Yall remember this face in 10 years on astros prospects list. Most of yall have seen lilshep grow up (appreciate all the kind words) . Played 4 games today. 7 for 8 at the plate. 5 innings 9 strikeouts no walks, no hits. Error free defense also. Our team went 4-0 for championship. Boys played from 9am to 930pm out in waller. That autographed baseball @Player has maybe worth something one day. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk
Lilshep has been killing it in first year of select kid pitch. Pitched 5 innings today struck out 9. No walks, no hits. Went 7 for 8 at the plate. Drove in 5 runs , scored 6. Only out he made was deep fly out to right. Error free defense also. 4 games today in the freezing weather in waller. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk
Wow, give the gm a raise to top 3 paid gms.cal and Janice continue to somehow, someway sink this franchise further and further each day into the ground Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk
I know cal is a idiot but how can anyone as a owner be ok with Jack and nick calling down to hc for play calling. Nothing will change until cal is gone. Completely doesn't care about product on the field or public perception of the front office. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk
