John Holdzkom Indy ball to MLB
John Holdzkom has to be the best story in baseball right now. Going from a couple of independent league teams to mlb in a couple of months is amazing. He’s not just getting mop up time, the Pirates have been pitching him in clutch situations. Last night he comes in the 8 th inning of a 1-0 game. He has 8 appearances, 0 ERA, he was placed on the 40 man roster in time for post season consideration. I would sure like to see him in a NLCS game! I saw him pitch against the red sox last week, he...

New High School Pitch Count Rules
I didn’t want to hijack the Dr. Andrews "year round throwing" thread, but under the same umbrella is the pitch count debate. Today, our state high school governing board announced the implementation of a pitch count plan that I believe is loosely based on the ASMI recommendation. As the dad of a 2015 pitcher (already committed), the guidelines seem reasonable to me and would seem to prevent abuse by an overzealous coach trying to ride his #1 pitcher. Here in our cold weather state, our...

A simple way to show why line drives rule.
For those of you looking for a way to convince your hitters that line drives are the best way to go, try tracking your hitters so you can get the minimal information on BIPs of name, ball trajectory, and whether it’s a hit or not. From that you can generate this metric, and if it doesn’t get through some of those thick skulls, you need to try to replace them. The 1 st 2 pages are the hitters and the last page is the pitchers.
