3 ball on the run drill  Where is your momentum going post throw? Can you control your body into and out of catch & throw? First rep go with one hand, second rep two hands, & third rep barehand  #PicknPivot

Brayan Rocchio early work backhand  Every drill should have some type of transfer involved. How many times can we interact w/ transferring the ball each day?  Thumb down to thumb up — kill the hop  #PicknPivot

Great visual for how fast it happens  Simpson runs a 3.97 down the line, are you preparing for that pregame?  Your comfortable reps aren’t preparing you fully for first pitch Train dirty to play clean #PicknPivot  📸 MLB

Heads up play to say the least — baseball IQ 📈
