Nine Years Old, 324 Pitches—Time to Draw the LineAfter a week off to shake a nasty bug, host Deven Morgan is back on “the world's most dangerous youth baseball podcast” with his most passionate episode yet. Deven opens with quick hits—AxeBat and 3A Athletics discounts, new Driveline Academy camps—then dives into a heartfelt recap of his son's High School team's postseason run and the power of true senior leadership. From there he pulls no punches on coaching culture, contrasting supportive environments with programs that shame kids into playing scared. The centerpiece rant tackles a jaw-dropping case of pitch-count abuse: a nine-year-old who threw 324 pitches in one weekend and the tournament operator who shrugged it off. Deven explains why tournament providers must adopt MLB Pitch Smart-style limits, likening the current “not our problem” attitude to the era of child factory labor. Along the way he deconstructs toxic “tough-love” memes, explores flow state, and reminds parents that the real goal is nurturing a lifelong passion for the game. Raw, funny, and unfiltered, this episode is a call to protect kids and preserve baseball's future.00:00 Introduction and Housekeeping06:48 High School Baseball Experience11:06 Coaching Culture and Leadership20:12 The Impact of Coaching Styles30:09 Youth Sports and Performance Mindset39:15 Understanding Flow State in Sports41:46 The Impact of Parental Pressure on Young Athletes44:57 Pitch Count Abuse in Youth Baseball56:03 The Responsibility of Tournament Providers01:01:06 Creating a Safe Environment for Young Athletes01:09:59 The Importance of Passion in Youth SportsLinksDriveline Youth Development Campshttps://www.drivelinebaseball.com/academy-youth-baseball-camps/Start training with Driveline now with Academy Flex:https://www.drivelinebaseball.com/academy-flex/Develop bat speed with our Youth Power Bat for just $99!https://www.drivelinebaseball.com/product/youth-power-trainer/Skills That Scale: The Complete Youth Baseball Training Manual is out now!https://www.drivelinebaseball.com/product/skills-that-scale-training-manual/Train bat speed and barrel accuracy with our Youth Underload Smash bat - just $79!https://www.drivelinebaseball.com/product/youth-underload-smash-bat/⬇️ Host ⬇️Deven Morganhttps://twitter.com/devenmorgan

Podcast: Toe the Rubber May 1, 2025 Return to Synchronicity McClintock and Jung Barbara McClintock: American scientist and pioneering cytogeneticist who made groundbreaking discoveries in genetics. She is best known for discovering "jumping genes" or transposable elements— segments of DNA that can move within a genome. Her work showed that genes are not fixed in place and can regulate each other, which was revolutionary at the time. "If you know you are on the right track, if you have this inner knowledge, then nobody can turn you off... no matter what they say.” "There's no such thing as a central dogma into which everything will fit. Life is too complicated for that.” Carl Jung: “Synchronicity is an ever-present reality for those who have eyes to see.” “The connecting principle appears to reside in the dynamics of the collective unconscious.” Current trend in Gadgets: A short list of physical products: Cross Symmetry bands/tubing Jaeger bands Towell drills - derivatives Weighted baseballs Baseball Derivatives of the pitch grips and different pitches Long Toss A list of technology products (arm or pitch centric): 1.

Proximal-to-Distal Sequencing in Pitching: A Coaching Manual for Youth Development Understanding the Proximal-to-Distal Movement Pattern In pitching, the proximal-to-distal movement pattern refers to the sequential activation and movement of body segments, starting from the body's center (proximal segments) and progressing outward to the extremities (distal segments). This sequence is crucial for generating maximum velocity and reducing injury risk. The kinetic chain in pitching typically follows this order: pelvis → trunk → shoulder → arm → forearm → hand. Each segment builds upon the momentum of the previous one, culminating in efficient energy transfer to the baseball. (Biomechanics Research Aims to Improve Sports Performance, The Association of Baseball Pitch Delivery and Kinematic Sequence ...) Sequencing Order and Its Importance The ideal pitching sequence involves: (Kinematic Sequence Important for Preventing Baseball Injuries) 1. Pelvis Rotation: Initiates the kinetic chain, generating rotational energy. 2. Trunk Rotation: Transfers energy from the pelvis to the upper body. 3. Shoulder Rotation: Continues the energy transfer, positioning the arm. 4. Arm Acceleration: Propels the forearm and hand forward. 5. Forearm and Hand Movement: Final acceleration and release of the ball. (Sport Specialization and Overuse Injuries in Adolescent Throwing ..., Comparison of Kinematic Sequences During Curveball and Fastball ...) Proper sequencing ensures that each segment reaches its peak velocity at the right time, optimizing performance and minimizing stress on the body. (Biomechanics Research Aims to Improve Sports Performance) Negative Effects of Overtraining Distal Segments Focusing excessively on training distal segments (arm, forearm, hand) can disrupt the natural kinetic chain, leading to: • Increased Injury Risk: Overemphasis on the arm can cause imbalances and place undue stress on joints and muscles, increasing the likelihood of injuries such as UCL tears. • Neuromuscular Fatigue: Isolated training of distal segments can lead to fatigue and decreased performance due to the lack of support from proximal muscles. • Inefficient Mechanics: Neglecting the development of proximal segments can result in compensatory movements, reducing overall pitching efficiency. Disruption of Motor Engram Sequencing Motor engrams are neural patterns that encode specific movements. Overtraining distal movements can: • Alter Motor Patterns: Focusing on arm path alone can lead to the development of faulty movement patterns, disrupting the natural sequencing of the kinetic chain. • Impair Skill Acquisition: Neglecting full-body mechanics hampers the integration of complex movements, making it harder for pitchers to learn and refine their delivery. • Reduce Adaptability: Ingrained improper patterns limit a pitcher's ability to adjust mechanics in response to game situations or coaching feedback. Age-Specific Considerations Ages 10–12: • Focus: Developing general athleticism and introducing basic pitching mechanics. • Training Emphasis: Body awareness, balance, and coordination exercises. • Avoid: Specialized pitching drills that isolate arm movements. Ages 13–15: • Focus: Refining mechanics and building strength. • Training Emphasis: Core stability, lower body strength, and integrated movement patterns. • Monitor: Growth spurts that may affect coordination and mechanics. Ages 16–18: • Focus: Enhancing performance and preparing for higher-level competition. • Training Emphasis: Advanced strength training, power development, and fine-tuning mechanics. • Caution: Avoid overuse and ensure adequate recovery to prevent injuries. Conclusion A comprehensive understanding of proximal-to-distal sequencing is essential for developing efficient and safe pitching mechanics. Coaches should prioritize full-body training approaches that emphasize the integration of all body segments, ensuring young pitchers build a solid foundation for long-term success.

The Man In The Arena"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."Chapters00:00 - Introduction and Housekeeping02:59 - Youth Training Tools and Their Impact06:09 - Navigating Parental Emotions in Youth Sports09:13 - The Pressure of Competition and Personal Attacks12:05 - Chirping and Its Impact on Young Athletes18:08 - The Softness of Spectator Behavior20:55 - Standing Up Against Disrespect in Competition24:23 - The Emotional Rollercoaster of Watching Your Child Play27:05 - Learning from Adversity in Youth Sports29:43 - The Individuality of Baseball and Its Impact on Young Players33:16 - Responsibility and Growth in Competitive Environments37:24 - Extracting Value from Experiences39:21 - Pitch Count Awareness and Youth Baseball SafetyLinksStart training with Driveline now with Academy Flex:https://www.drivelinebaseball.com/academy-flex/Develop bat speed with our Youth Power Bat for just $99!https://www.drivelinebaseball.com/product/youth-power-trainer/Skills That Scale: The Complete Youth Baseball Training Manual is out now!https://www.drivelinebaseball.com/product/skills-that-scale-training-manual/Train bat speed and barrel accuracy with our Youth Underload Smash bat - just $79!https://www.drivelinebaseball.com/product/youth-underload-smash-bat/⬇️ Hosts ⬇️Deven Morganhttps://twitter.com/devenmorgan Jeremy Tecktielhttps://twitter.com/jeremytecktiel

*** We'll be taking a break over the Christmas/New Year period and will be back in action mid-January.That means that although there won't be any new episodes for a few weeks, we'll be taking another look at some of our favourite conversations from 2024. ***If you've spent any time on YouTube, you're probably already aware of this episode's guest and the various projects his channel is involved in — most famously “Project Binky”, a classic Mini running a Toyota Celica GT-Four engine and AWD driveline.Richard Brunning from Bad Obsession Motorsport joins us to down a few cups of tea, talk motorsport, and run through the ins and outs of neverending project cars, the business of operating a popular automotive YouTube channel, and much more.Use “BAD100” to get $100 OFF our HPA Motorsport Fabrication Package:https://hpcdmy.co/fabpackagebRichard, like many guests of this podcast, has his father to blame for his motorsport obsession. Some of his earliest memories involve hanging out in old sheds while his Dad restored vintage vehicles, tickling up RC cars to get the edge in racing, and days spent on the couch watching Formula 1.This early focus on all things automotive drove Richard towards a life that revolved around motorsport, first starting out in kart racing, before moving on to Caterhams, formula cars, and even some Formula Mazda racing in the States. In this episode, Richard spends time talking us through these different forms of motorsport, and discusses how each type of vehicle could be set up, tweaked, and modified within the rules in order to gain more speed.Eventually, Richard's good friend and eventual partner in crime, Nik Blackhurst, enticed Richard back to the UK to help him go rallying, and it was at this point, way back in 1992, that Bad Obsession Motorsport began.Fast forward a good few years, and Richard and Nick were fed up with the car modification TV shows like Pimp My Ride, Monster Garage, and their contemporaries that were on offer at the time — none of them actually showed why and how any of the work was done. This got the pair thinking that they might be able to do better, and with that goal in mind, the Bad Obsession Motorsport YouTube channel was founded.It took a couple of years, but Richard and Nick's channel began picking up steam, not in small part thanks to “Project Binky”, a Toyota Celica GT-4 powered and driven classic Mini. Richard dives deep into this build, answering our burning questions — chiefly ‘Why'? But also “What's taking so long”?This in-depth discussion around the challenges of fitting so much engine and driveline into such a small package is a great look into what it takes to complete a complicated project to a high standard. Lastly, we also spare some time time to touch on the joys of motorsport wiring, ultra-budget racing in the City Car Cup, and making a living out of building cars on YouTube.Follow Bad Obsession Motorsport here:IG: @badobsessionmspFB: Bad Obsession MotorsportYT: Bad Obsession MotorsportWWW: badobsessionmotorsport.co.ukDon't forget, you can use “BAD100” to get $100 OFF our HPA Motorsport Fabrication Package: https://hpcdmy.co/fabpackageb

Legendary pitchers like Nolan Ryan thrived without major surgeries, sparking intriguing comparisons to today's injury-laden players. By exploring how current training methods might restrict natural adaptation, we consider whether pitchers should be allowed to push their boundaries to cultivate long, healthy careers. We discuss the potential impacts of stringent inning limits and early injuries on young players, emphasizing the balance needed between technological advancements and time-honored practices.Finally, we're diving into the world of minor league development, examining the challenges young athletes face as they transition to the majors. With insights from experts like Kyle Boddy from Driveline, we uncover the disparity between minor and major league experiences and how the trend of protecting prospects might affect their readiness. Reflecting on personal experiences, we highlight the importance of resilience and practical experience in overcoming physical thresholds. Along the way, expect some light-hearted moments as we engage with these complex dynamics and share the growth journey of our podcast.ARTICLE REFERENCE:https://metsmerizedonline.com/arms-in-danger-finds-mlb-report/THANK YOU FOR LISTENING!!!!www.holdmycutter.com

If you've spent any time on YouTube, you're probably already aware of this episode's guest and the various projects his channel is involved in — most famously “Project Binky”, a classic Mini running a Toyota Celica GT-Four engine and AWD driveline.Richard Brunning from Bad Obsession Motorsport joins us to down a few cups of tea, talk motorsport, and run through the ins and outs of neverending project cars, the business of operating a popular automotive YouTube channel, and much more.Use “BAD100” to get $100 OFF our HPA Motorsport Fabrication Package:https://hpcdmy.co/fabpackagebRichard, like many guests of this podcast, has his father to blame for his motorsport obsession. Some of his earliest memories involve hanging out in old sheds while his Dad restored vintage vehicles, tickling up RC cars to get the edge in racing, and days spent on the couch watching Formula 1.This early focus on all things automotive drove Richard towards a life that revolved around motorsport, first starting out in kart racing, before moving on to Caterhams, formula cars, and even some Formula Mazda racing in the States. In this episode, Richard spends time talking us through these different forms of motorsport, and discusses how each type of vehicle could be set up, tweaked, and modified within the rules in order to gain more speed.Eventually, Richard's good friend and eventual partner in crime, Nik Blackhurst, enticed Richard back to the UK to help him go rallying, and it was at this point, way back in 1992, that Bad Obsession Motorsport began.Fast forward a good few years, and Richard and Nick were fed up with the car modification TV shows like Pimp My Ride, Monster Garage, and their contemporaries that were on offer at the time — none of them actually showed why and how any of the work was done. This got the pair thinking that they might be able to do better, and with that goal in mind, the Bad Obsession Motorsport YouTube channel was founded.It took a couple of years, but Richard and Nick's channel began picking up steam, not in small part thanks to “Project Binky”, a Toyota Celica GT-4 powered and driven classic Mini. Richard dives deep into this build, answering our burning questions — chiefly ‘Why'? But also “What's taking so long”?This in-depth discussion around the challenges of fitting so much engine and driveline into such a small package is a great look into what it takes to complete a complicated project to a high standard. Lastly, we also spare some time time to touch on the joys of motorsport wiring, ultra-budget racing in the City Car Cup, and making a living out of building cars on YouTube.Follow Bad Obsession Motorsport here:IG: @badobsessionmspFB: Bad Obsession Motorsport YT: Bad Obsession MotorsportWWW: badobsessionmotorsport.co.ukDon't forget, you can use “BAD100” to get $100 OFF our HPA Motorsport Fabrication Package: https://hpcdmy.co/fabpackagebTimestamps:4:04 How did you develop an interest in cars?7:00 Did you learn anything from racing RC cars that could transfer to driving a go-kart?8:10 How was your experience driving karts?17:46 What is it about karts that makes it such a good learning platform for racing?22:53 What is a cost-effective way to get into racing?25:26 What other motorsports have you been involved in?32:49 Transition from racing to Bad Obsession Motorsport36:23 Automotive skill set before starting Bad Obsession Motorsport?40:20 What were you thinking when you decided to start a YouTub
