Thanks dude, I am 12. I play baseball my self. I play first and pitcher. I was thinking about this a couple days ago to be honest. This realy helps alot
Hey guys,solid info from you guys on what a baseball player needs to do to train and become a great prospect. Im a sports writer from Canada and wanted to ask Chris Marlowe a question on scouting pitchers specifically. Im new to the channel and look forward to learning,especially from a scouting perspective.
Would you say size matters at a showcase. For example if there is a 15u kid who is six three and has lots of velo and can crush the ball but isn’t very fundamentally sound do you think they have and advantage over smaller kids who have good mechanics but maybe aren’t developed fully yet so they don’t look as pleasing to the eye
i want to be a d1 pitcher i will be a sophomore next year, i throw 75 and i have a nasty knuckle curve and a good cutter/slider and i can locate my pitches very well but in showcases no one will look at me because i don’t throw 80+ but in games no one can really hit me how do i increase my velo
Lots of long toss and as ur working in try to throw the ball on the line. Long toss and throwing it high will develop muscles in the back and throwing on a line will develop the muscles in the front
What about a 6'1 205 lbs 15 year old that throws across the field at 79 but is a tad slower than the smaller kids. What do y'all see in a kid like that?
Im the exact opposite. Im 5'9 129 pounds and am the definition of speed; Ive got a cannon attached to my arm too. Only problem is that im not 6'5 240 pounds of muscle.
kingyak7 Bat speed in my opinion. You’re probably gonna see gains through drills and workouts a lot faster and more noticeable in bat speed than the others.
I was told scouts look for 3 things. Foot speed, arm speed and bat speed. Everything else can be taught. I was told this 25+ years ago. Things might have changed.
Thats it! They dont care if u can catch a flyball if u are a oitfielder, grounders in the infield, or blocking as a catcher, mechanics as a pitcher. Some showcases are so pathetic that no scouts are there! They hire some part timer high school band member to just sit and take velo speeds behind the backstop an put results in their website. Its all velo for everything now. You turn into a serial killer after they pick you up oh well they never see or check who they pickup just get me that velo!
@@YouGoPro I never meant to put down showcasing. And.my intentions were never to insult coach madden or any of the other coaches he makes training videos with. I appreciate every FREE video I've watched on TH-cam from yougopro. I was merely making a written observation about something a college coach said to me when I was a young ballplayer. And it's something that made me work very hard on certain aspects of my game. Scouts are looking for athletes. That's why when you read.the bio of some center fielder playing for some.single a ballclub, its says he ran track in college and never even touched a bat until last year. It sounds to me like the commentor had his dreams crushed when a showcase didn't turn out the way he thought it would for him or his loved one and I feel for him. I have big dreams for my sons also but if it doesnt happen they probably weren't good enough athletes and that's ok. It's not the showcases fault. Or some coach who told me to go.
Thanks for all these vids they have helped me so much and recently I made the AAA team!!!

Thanks I was hoping to get drafted off of my 40 and over team. Now I think I will with these great tidbits of info.

I like to go through the motions on everyground ball, even if its not hit to me.
Hey I’m a junior in high school and I’m just wondering where I should play summer ball. Where’s the best place to go to gain exposure?
Jonathon Miller banditos baseball
Anywhere that plays in perfect game tournaments. Depending where ur from canes is usually a good one or team elite
What about a 6'1 205 lbs 15 year old that throws across the field at 79 but is a tad slower than the smaller kids. What do y'all see in a kid like that?
Randall Reno Keep working to get better and faster. Gotta do something to stand out. Right now you’re sitting at average.
Thanks. I'll tell him.
Im the exact opposite.
Im 5'9 129 pounds and am the definition of speed; Ive got a cannon attached to my arm too.

I play shortstop, and I have a baseball combine that I got invited to August 17,2019
i am 14 and play triple a but have never been to perfect game or anything how can i get my name more out there?
i’m wondering the same
You could send a video to the coaches and send them emails

Gabriel Arteaga Yeh boy! 🙌
Of the 3, foot speed, bat speed, and arm speed which can be developed faster?

MrCctvtech We talked about those 3 things and a few more 👊😉 but yes you’re right

MrCctvtech Oh no I didn’t take it that way. All good brother. Well said. 👊😉
