The Lehigh 380 "Defender" bullet is killer cool, as Cartman might say. :) Underwood and Blackhills are loading this thing, and if you or a loved one carries a 380 for self-defense, this is the load to use! Also, how does the 6.5 PRC do in high wind (exceptionally well, in fact)... we'll discuss the performance of the 153 grain Hornady ATIP at 1 mile... and can't we all agree? Hasn't the tranny crap gone WAY TOO FAR? We believe so, and more and more sane folks around the globe are in total agreement. We'll talk about these and other things on tonight's episode of The BangSteel Long Range Shooting Podcast. :)

So lucky to have not one, not even two but FIVE Posse Scholars from the Class of 2023 who will be heading to Boston University, Lehigh University, St Olaf College and University of Puget Sound next year to continue the tradition of great leaders who will illustrate with their actions not just words - CAN'T STOP WON'T STOP!

I'm joined this week by a couple members of the Richmond Flying Squirrels: RHP Mason Black, the Giants 3rd round pick in 2021 out of Lehigh University, and infielder Hayden Cantrelle, whom the Giants acquired from Miami last year.Mason and I talk modern training methods, arm care regime, the mental side of the game, searching for the perfect breaking pitch and much more. Hayden tells me what it felt like going through three different organizations in little more than a month's time and how he maintained his course through that experience. He also gives some insight into a question that many fans had in the days of 40 round drafts — why do teams draft some high school players they don't intend to sign? There are reasons!If you like the podcasts, you might enjoy being a full-time subscriber to There R Giants as well!Mason Black (2:00)Hayden Cantrelle (16:00)Intro/Outro: “Alright” by SupergrassAs an experiment, I've had some readers write in to say that they don't enjoy listening to podcasts, but would like to have access to the content, so this week I'm trying out a transcribing app to see if that helps bridge the gap. These voice interpreting software apps are far from perfect, but maybe it helps? Let me know what you think!MASON BLACK TRANSCRIPT:RM: All right, Mason, how you doing? How's the how's how you feel about the start of the season?MB: Everything's been great. A lot of fun being back on the East Coast obviously had some family you got to come see last week so really enjoyed it here. Especially Richmond weather's beautiful, so can't say enough good things.RM: This is actually one of the best Aprils I've seen on here. So far. This is pretty sweet weather. Sweet. Yeah. Awesome. So I think a lot of people know that, in an alternate universe you might have gone to med school. I wonder if I could rely on some of your your Med School knowledge to ask you some things that we're seeing in pitcher training regimens that I think people hear about a lot, but they maybe don't understand.MB: Okay, I'll try my best but I did not go to med school. That's just a disclaimer. RM: Right. Not a real doctor, right? Yeah. Well, let's start with pylo balls. Okay, they're everywhere in the game. They seem to have really revolutionized training. What exactly are they and what did they do for you?MB? There's overspeed and under speed one so either heavier than the traditional weight of a baseball or lighter and what they've helped for me at least I know the guys might use it for different mechanisms, but I like to use them as kind of like training how my body should feel so like put a heavier weight in your arm and just move how your body should feel. It gives you almost like a hypersensitivity to like how you're supposed to be moving that way you get a feel for and you can apply it in your actual catch by what's the lighter one did the lighter one is more of like an arm speed thing that allows you it's a little bit like gives you a little bit more fluid motion. So you can kind of train the the heavy stuff first and then move into the lighter ball and just feel like that looseness in your arm. Like just really relax it.RM: Do some of them help you with with spin. Are there other pylo balls that help you get shape on pitches better?MB: Not necessarily. Or at least that's not what I use it for. I'm sure if you talk to probably 10 other guys they would have different answers. But I like it. There is just like the aspect of like supinating when I throw the ball or when I throw a plyo ball I tried to supinate and just like try to mimic my natural arm slot so I guess you can say it does have some aspects of turning that that spin but it might not be directly spin grade correlated more of like a spin. Like altering like getting that good supination around the ball.RM: There's a thing I see so I'll come in the the word visitors guys are warming up. There's a thing I see all the time. And it's like, pitchers get down on their knee with their back to a wall and then they take what he's saying and throw it backwards against the wall as hard as they can. And you look at it like looks like my shoulder would come out of it's socket. what what are you doing? What are they trying to do when they do that? MB: That is called a reverse throw. It's almost like step A when you learn how to use bio balls. That's like the first thing you always do. And I think I speak for almost 90% of our pitches where we just all do that one. It's just something that we're taught. And I mean for me at least I like the counter rotation aspect of it like you feel like you're reverse like pulling a seatbelt. Like you're almost unclipping a seatbelt so it takes you from like that lower left side to that upper right side for right hander, and it's kind of like I use it as like a priming the system kind of thing. Like just get the scab engage. Get like the mid back to, you know, that lower left side really firing.RM: So you're I think we're two days out from your next start. So where in the whole kind of arm care regimen between starts, would you be doing something like that?MB: I do those every day, actually. Every day and that's something that our our front office and pitching coordinators all the way from the top down really emphasize is just having that consistent routine that like gets you going for every single day. So I do the reverse throws as well as a couple other quiet ball drills every day just to feel good, whether it's 11am 9am like yesterday or or nice five feet hereRM: just kind of wakes wakes up the system MB: Oh yeah.RM: There was the other night Sean Manaea was pitching in the Giants game and I forget who it was. It was Javy Lopez with somebody was saying that he said this year is the first time he'd ever had an arm care routine, which is kind of hard to imagine. Is that something new that you guys get when you come to pro ball? Is it just like does this anything you guys know about when you're college or is this is this pro and how do you like figure it out?MB: It really is trial and error. I do have to say I mean coming into pro ball I really didn't have like an arm care like are a day after I got to do this day two days after I got to do this. It was just kind of like in college. I mean, you always feel you're like a rubber band and you're at 19 years old feels great. You're like I could do a couple arm circles that I'm good to throw whereas like now it's like now you're throwing every day. It's like you do have to kind of structure your weeks around when you're going to pitch and I actually enjoy it just because like we've had incredible like strength staff and everything that'll work with you a ton and just finding what works for you. I've really enjoyed doing that so far.RM: So there's what you're doing now like basically the same or very different from what you're doing a year ago and you're in San Jose.MB: It's a lot of parts of it are the same. I do that another lift in like the day before but for the most part it's been like pretty consistent just like hopped on the Giants, rotator cuff and SCAP strengthening programs and then kind of pick and choose what I like add that in there but the structure is almost the same. So it's been enjoyable. People smarter than me foot made that so I'll take their word for it. It's been helping. I was able to throw a lot of things last year so it ain't broke don't fix it.RM: Is a lot of it just listening to your body like I'm four days out from the starter How do I feel kind of thing? Is that just basically feeling your body?MB: Yeah, a lot of it is just like feeling it out with like, Oh, I'm like I'm kind of hanging today might be a good day to take it easier on the throwing side of things and really focus on the weight room side.RM: When you were at Lehigh I think the story was that that you kind of changed your mechanics going into your final year and then changed more or back or something once you got into pro ball. How did that sort of progression go? Like what were you changing and what were you trying to accomplish when you're going through those various changes? MB: Well, if you went ahead and did some advanced scouting on me, my freshman and sophomore years at Lehigh, I had this real long arm action like at footstrike My arm was never in the same spot twice. And while it was like I was good, I was able to throw strikes for the most part and really just like command my off speed. It wasn't I didn't think what was gonna get me into pro ball or make me make that like next step in my development like it was almost like a cap. So I went ahead and took a risk and change my arm action a little bit alongside of one of our coaches. At Lehigh. And while it did backfire in the short term, I think like long term I was able to get to where I am now and had not done that it probably would have. I probably wouldn't be here. I could tell you that much. But yeah, just as like, it was almost like an overemphasis of like a shorter arm action and trying to get that arm consistent at footstrike and then once like as the year progressed, it kind of went back to more of like a neutral position between my old arm path and that recent like for short one so kind of like averaged out and got me into a good spot.RM: So where are you now? Are you kind of at the shortest end of where you've been, are you in between?MB: I'm in between. So I mean, I still had some control issues when I shorten things up a lot. So I think going back to like that neutral in between my really long one and that shorter one is out RM: Basically the last year last year and so far this year your control had been pretty impeccable. I don't think you've walked a guy yet this year. Certainly in San Jose, you know, the walks have been very, very limited as a pro. Have you gotten into a place where you feel like I'm a reliable strike thrower. I feel confident that I'm going to be able to get ahead of counts at this point.MB: I think so. Yeah. And a lot of that is not only like physical but it is on the mental side of things like just from the top down like pitching coordinators and pitching coaches like oh, he preaches it as well as like, we do have to own the zone and if your stuff is is good enough, then you should be able to throw the ball in the zone and kind of limit damage so that's the mentality I've kind of taken into pro ball is just like, at the end of the day, I'm not going to get beat by myself by walking guys. I want to force contact and force the other team to beat me. And just like from the mental skill side of things, I've had a lot of help to with that. So I've really appreciated itRM: I was gonna ask you a breaking ball, but now that you bring up mental skills, that's that's kind of like a fascinating part of player development to me. How do you use kind of the mental skills resources that the the organization has to help kind of refine your craft or help develop yourself whether it's as a player or as a person?MB: Definitely, it's something I definitely didn't take enough advantage of in college because we had a school psychologist, a baseball psychologist, and I just like I almost saw it as as something you needed if you were struggling and instead of someone who's there for you, whether you're doing well or not well, so it's it was something that getting into pro ball and we had Kellen Lee with us last year and he spent a lot of time in San Jose that so just picking his brain up and talking about visualization and just like the mental steps that you can take going into an outing yourself tremendously. Yeah.RM: It's a big thing, obviously for this organization that it's not a weakness, right. It's helping make your strength. Okay, I do want to talk about your breaking up. I was watching a game years in spring and I was just talking to a scout who had seen you really early last year in San Jose says oh, the shape of his sliders are different this year. And I'm like, Oh, do you mean it's less weepy? And he said, No, it's more sweeping. I'm like, well, that's weird. When I saw him in Eugene, the end of the year. I thought it was pretty sweeping. It's like, Oh, I saw him the early in the year in San Jose and it was it was more vertical. How have you been experimenting? What experimentation you've been dealing with the shape of your breaking ball the last two seasons?MB: like everything is trial and error. I do have to say coming into pro ball really didn't have that any shape in mind as to what I was looking for. So finally getting on track man. This was early on, like last spring training. Just like them telling me oh, we want you to throw a sweeper and I was like, okay, cool. So it just I would try it and it just naturally swept across the zone. So I was like, Alright, I think I could do this stick on board. And then we'd like it would come and go lose it here and there and I think this year I've taken the approach of like recognizing why it's going south, and why it's turning into more of a traditional slider. And then there's also like the crossfire aspect that they you've mentioned in one of the tweets in the past that's helped to get more east west on things and just try to create separation between that and the sink orRM: is it something where you you'd actually like to be able to manipulate a couple shapes on it, you know, based on right hand or left hand or or guy swings or something like that. Is that a place you want to get to? Or do you want to have one really consistent shape?MB: I think manipulation is the ultimate goal just being able to to throw it you know if a left hander is up you want to get more depth on it or right hander you want to get off the barrow some more sweep, but I mean right now I think it's folks it's just get it in the zone at a consistent rate and then we'll worry about that stuff later. I've been lucky to to get away with like throwing like four seems didn't sinkers and everything else change up in the zone a little bit more. So definitely have to get that change or slider working more this year.RM: you mentioned the change up. You've been drilling something that has like a pretty good downward movement or is that the changeup Are you throwing a splitter this year? What's going on with your your your other pitch for pitch,MB: I like to call it a “splange” for lack of a better term, it's got a splitter spin but splitter spin rate I guess you could say but you kind of oriented more so of a way that it it has like a changeup action where it grabs the seams in such a way that it has that more downer shade.RM: What was it? What was the word used for thatMB: A “splangeup.” RM: Yeah. I like that term. I will now we seem like you're in a pretty good place this year. Yeah, I mean, just like mentally physically performance on the field and things are going pretty well for you this year. MB: Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, it's been a lot of fun. We have a great group of guys here and obviously having fat Bailey catch me a lot but also Martorano and Andy Thomas and [Auerbach] to like having that group behind the dish. Let's see worry a lot less about catching and just more about pitching and because you know they're gonna pick you up as well as our whole defense. Like, guys have been killing it this year. So I can't say enough good things about this team in this group.RM: When I talked to Bailey last week, he said basically, he doesn't want you guys to think on the mound. Like just do it. Just get out there and do it. Is that that kind of what you want to do too.MB: Yeah. Well, I know he knows me. He knows I like to think so, sometimes he'll yell at me like give me a little kick every once in a while but it's all in good nature. Good fun.RM: Well, things have been going pretty pretty good so far this year. Great last year, obviously. wish you continued success and I can't wait to watch. MB: Appreciate it! Thanks.HAYDEN CANTRELLE TRANSCRIPT:RM: All right. Good to meet you. How are you feeling? How are things going this year for you,HC: you as well. Happy to be here with a new group of guys. You know, things have been going great so far. You know, it's a good chemistry group of guys, you know, you know, motivating everybody to get better in their craft and so you know, coming out and playing on a nightly basis and entertaining here in Richmond. It's been fun so far.RM: So you talk about a new group of guys, obviously, you know, a lot of people at this level are going to be this is the only organization they've ever known. That's not the case for you. You went through, like to in a month, basically last year, what was that like for you?HC: It was, it was very chaotic. I, I think I had a lot of a lot of questions about you know, where I was gonna go or, you know why or you could ask all that but, you know, for myself, you know, I just grew to my routines day to day, you know, that's what got me through that transition. And then you know, getting placed with the Giants eventually has been a good fit. And, you know, it's been great to work with my craft with a bunch of really good developers in this organization. You know, as I as I've had the other organizations but you know, it's more people, you know, invested in my career and grateful for that. You.RM: One thing you'll often hear from from guys is when you get into pro ball, there's obviously a lot of really smart people bringing you information. Sometimes it can be overwhelming confusing. I assume when you go through a lot of several different organizations, they all have their own kind of way of doing things. It can be even more confusing. How'd you like stay true to kind of your path through that stuff?HC: Yeah, I think one thing's for sure is you know, I had my own you know, adjustments I was looking to make and that in that sense and so for for every ballplayer I guess you know, I can speak for myself, you know the day to day grind is about bettering yourself and bettering your craft. So in more ways than one, you know, you have indicators of success and measures of things you need to work on. And that's that's what you really try to focus on, you know, going from team to team and then you know, when you step in between the lines with whoever it is, you know, it's that the theme is about winning. So that makes it simple. So, you know, day to day you work on your craft, you know, so at nighttime, you know, you can go play for your boys.RM: Obviously, one reason why that's probably a good fit for you is you do a lot of things at this organization values. You have a really good eye at the play, you're disciplined you tend to walk you know more than you strike out. What's your kind of approach? At the plate? Who do you think of yourself when you're getting in the box?HC: Well, I guess without telling you everything, you know, secrets quite quite simply, you know, you know if I'm in a funk or whatnot, you know, a little simple thing I'll tell my friends and myself is you know, just swing it swing at strikes and take balls. So, you know, in essence, you know, that's all that approach entails, you know, granted what day to day scouting reports and feels and you know, all of the other stuff that plays into the point four seconds of decision making is all is always that so you know, but to keep it simple, you know, just swing at the strikes and take the ballRM: It's the old like Ted Williams approach, but it sounds easy, but it's it's not that easy.HC: Yeah, no, it's definitely been a lot of development. You know, there's a lot of work that goes you know, goes into scenes, you know, to make sure that you're in a position to do that, you know, at game time but you know, in the best way possible. If I can do that I'll have a good day at the park.RM: You're also the switch hitter, which is your like natural side. When did you pick up switch hitting and where do you feel which side do you feel best thatHC: I've, I've been switching since I was six. I probably did it in T ball. I did it religiously. You know like left when there's a righty pitch and hit lefty by age 10 I was doing it full fledge. I grew up a righty originally though. So I would say you know when I'm really locked in, you know on lefties, right he's really fun, I would say but, you know, general day to day you know, it's could be flip of a coin for success on each one. So try not to put either one in a corner, you know, and limit the success there. But, you know, I do feel my switching and gives me a great opportunity to win each play to parents.RM: It's funny because Bailey was saying he picked it up like pretty early 210 or so did you actually have opportunities to to hit right hand now? Did you see left handers when you're a kid muchHC: very, very interesting. You know, because once I started switching by age 10 You know the amount of times I hit right handed was very limited and it was it would beat me up mentally as a kid you know, grew up being really good right handed and I'd never get ready at bats. And then I remember at one point in high school, my coach suggested Hey, why don't we just hit left handed and I was like no, there no, there's a reason I just I feel like I haven't seen a lefty you know ever or at least a competitive lefty because you know, the left that you would see would be thrown 75 miles an hour or something like that. So right after college, you know, I'd say you know, in my first year of independent ball, I really started getting consistent as righty and that's when I really started seeing the you know, the switch hitting really start to flourish the way I'd wanted to, you know, my college career I was relatively successful righty compared to lefty but you know, in general the whole switching things just about how many times you see the guy you know, face more lefties you're gonna feel good and they're variety. You know, I'd say the hardest days are when they probably flip flop you for at bats, you probably go right left, right left but who knows sometimes that's what gets you you know on time and you know, maybe those are the fours that you hit on the button. So there's a switch here you try not to put any trends into that, you know, and the benefit to that is when you get to go in the batter's box it's it's always a brand new one slates always clean. You're always you know, just trying to compete. RM: So you're talking about growing up. I want to ask you about that. You know, you have all these like they're famous baseball hotbeds in the country, like we always have the Florida guy as well as other California guys. You grew up in Louisiana. What was the like, amateur youth baseball scene like where you grew up?HC: Yeah, I mean, for me, I played a play a little bit of travel baseball, and so about 12 competitively, and in the state of Louisiana, the 12 year old circuit we all play like do triple is a major and there's probably a good six teams in Louisiana and we would all find each other on the weekends on the you know, on the tournaments and we would all go play the best baseball and there was among those kids, there's probably 50 division one college baseball players from that 12 year old circuit. So I dropped out doing that in high school. You know, I kind of was out of summer baseball and showcase baseball because I played football. So I was always training for the fall and you know, doing seven on sevens, you know, thrown all of those and then on the weekends, you know, never really got to play much travel baseball, but as far as the talent you know, in high school, you know, very, very competitive and Lafayette Louisiana and then there's tons of Louisiana talent you know spread throughout of all of those Division One universities and a lot of kids leave you know, because they have the opportunity to so very, you know, very warm weather climate. So, you know, for the kids who want to throw down year round, you know, they had the opportunity I wasn't one of those kids and I think that really saved my fire for it. You know, I got to go baseball hat this year. And that football you know, just go you know, let it rip. So, you know, and every year baseball comes around it was time to go again. So would you play football, I played I played quarterback my senior year, junior year I played receiver and return the punts and kickoffs. So I was probably probably the best receiver we got my got my my my opportunities for college football as a receiver. So yeah, running kicks back sometimes pawns, whatever. So sometimes that's scarier than getting in the bystanders 95 when that ball goes up, and you just you don't look down again, soRM: Yeah. I still remember that myself to play. Well, you two sport guy in college?HC: No, I didn't know I didn't think physically I was in a position to play division one football so maybe in another life perhaps? Yeah.RM: I was looking at your baseball card. Before I talked and you actually played in some interesting kind of places. In your college career. One was like when you were maybe a rising freshman. You're up here. in Gaithersburg, Maryland, actually lived in gaithersburg for a while and never knew they had a competitive summer league. How did that happen? How do you find your way up here? HC: That was so after my senior year, right after the draft, I got courtesy picked by the Yankees in the 48th round. And that opened up an opportunity for me to play in a college collegiate summer league. So you know, I was able to reach out as a prospect type player. And you know, I was able to go out there and gaithersburg Maryland was one of the few places that were allowing high school players as freshmen. So I got to play out there actually, Daniel Cabrera was my teammate in that league that summer on the other team. And, you know, it was a good opportunity, my first taste of college arms prior to going into my first fall as a freshman and so then that definitely prepared me but you know, definitely, definitely some empty environments you could say but you know, it's all about digging. It's all about digging deep and seeing what you got. Anyway, so it was about ball and getting innings in regardless of we enjoyed gaithersburg we had a good time. SoRM: That's actually I think something fans never really understand is why the courtesy picks exist, but it's kind of like that way it opens doors and opportunities HC: yeah, you know as much as you know, and I had no idea I actually tell the story of when I got drafted in high school. It's not as people don't really ask about that when they want to ask about the one that happened recently but when I was with that when that happened that summer, you know my family was going out for some trip or some run some errands and I was at home by myself for a good five hours last day of the draft you know, it all had fizzled any opportunity I was gonna go it was an automatic no at this point. So everybody was gone and I went and took a nap and I woke up to open my phone and it was frozen. But yeah, just a little something like that. You know where maybe the Yankees at the time were respected me as a player, whatever and but just little things like that, you know, opened a big opportunity. And, you know, turns out that's why I ended up getting invited to the Cape because I played that summer, the summer before so I'd got to play in the Cape Cod and that had changed my life as well. So big, big series of events, you know, that happened that way but you know, definitely help helps. And I'm grateful for that.RM: Yeah, unfortunately, those those those rounds where the teams used to do that don't exist anymore, right. really psyched for kids. Exactly. Yeah, you played 22 years in the cape, which is unusual. The other thing you did that I thought was really interesting, what's 2020 When obviously everybody was scrambling to try and figure out how to how to help develop themselves. Yeah, you were in a little tournament. Joliet, Illinois, Chicago area or limited 14th thing to get an action. How did you how'd you find that?HC: Yeah, very interesting. You know, 2020 hit very, very odd time and I'm like, you know, I love I'm a park rat. I love to go to the field and play I love to throw the ball take fungos wherever so 2020 hit and all of the local college players in Louisiana we're all looking to get some reps. So I have my YouTube channel that you know we like dude making content with and stuff and so we had actually rented out a couple of venues back home and prior to that to get some reps and we had actually hosted some nine inning games, you know, with just a bunch of we call them sandlot games where we had we had fans come in we had some pa music all that stuff so but you know that went on and then you know I got opportunities i Hey, they're you know, they're putting together League and Juliet and so the super thrilled to just go play or whatever. So we're getting reps from doing wherever we could in that time to get reps and then now is getting opportunity to go facing arm so that was really that was really good for me. I got to go live with some guys up in in Joliet, Illinois and make that drive over there and you know definitely draw from that experience. A lot of a lot of a lot of things I needed to work on at the time, but you know, just to like, get my feet settled professionally, if you will. But it was a good environment to do that.RM: That was also the summer you got drafted. Was that before the draft or after the draft? Correct,HC: right. It was after. Yeah. So a couple months afterRM: I don't know if you know this, but Pelfrey was like involved in putting something like that together in Kentucky that like Fitzgerald played in and Logan Wyatt there was like, four team Kentucky league.HC: I didn't know that. Yeah. I thought we were the only one. But we were just happy to be out there. It was weird, but that people telling us you know, it'll like we're all sitting in the dugout and they're like telling us to move away from each other. It was weird, but whatever we were doing where everybody couldn't play ball. Everybody was being weird about everything but you know, we got we got we needed and then that was that was a weird time. RM: So it feels like your career has been really weird because like Milwaukee pushed you really hard so you like moved up levels quick. Then you like go through Miami back San Francisco. San Francisco takes you back down to like, complex was that just to like, get your feet under you kind of integrate you in the system. Get to know people what was that whole process like for you? Yeah,HC: that was kind of it was kind of weird. I made a YouTube video about that too very without with my actual on scene like reaction to it. But I remember just being real like, like it had already happened to me. And it was like weird what before the guy my coach was gonna tell me like I already had the sensation they knew it was happening again or whatever but you know getting like getting getting traded to the Giants and then not coming straight here I guess was maybe like a shock to me. But at the same time, you know, like, I was reminded myself that I still had like adjustments I had to make anyways wherever and so to be honest, at that point, I was very like, very like whatever I was very motivated to to fix my craft and make my adjustments so bummed out to probably go to Arizona at first and but that's not my job to understand that so I wasn't trying to like push back on it or I didn't even I didn't feel like I made a fuss about it either. I was just I was happy to go play on a team and I got to play with a bunch of younger kids who kind of rejuvenated my love for the game regardless so I was able to you know, I whenever I got promoted to San Jose on that bus ride, you know, there's there's kids were so happy for me and they had never met me before but they were so happy to see me get promoted from rookie ball to Loei. So it was like, if nothing else, it was a great perspective. Enhancement alongside with the adjustments I may made for that. You know, a good a good full circle a year later to be back in the same spot. You know, it's a good opportunity. So that's, you know, if nothing else, I've tried to see it for that and, you know, try to work in that that lens. That's pretty cool.RM: I now know that I have to go and watch your YouTube channel. So it's okay, so I'll end here. So now let's do your second year your backup to double a kind of full circle. Do you feel like comfortable? Do you feel like you're in a place that fit that? You know? How do you feel at this point going forward now?HC: Yeah, I think last year I came in just with the thought thinking it was the same mindset of you know, I'm comfortable with I've prepared very well. You know, and just like last year I've there's a lot of offseason adjustments I've made based on last season that I feel like in the exact same way I'm equally as prepared with as much information as I had, you know, going into this year so I feel like I feel like lately just been going to come to the field and playing with my hair on fire. And that's what I love to do. So kind of been offered results, you know, because my career has kind of taught me that and I like playing that way. So that's the approach and you know, I feel adequately prepared as it did last year, but I definitely feel better because I've definitely made some improvements. So excited to see what's gonna happen ready to let it rip.RM: You've got good hair to set on fire when you're playing it. Good luck. Yeah. Well, you know, I'm really glad to kind of get to know you and I can't wait to sort of watch your development through the season and good luck to hopefully you have great successes. HC:Appreciate it. Thanks very much. Yes, sir. Thank you Get full access to There R Giants at rogermunter.substack.com/subscribe

"John Crawley, a four-year standout for the Johns Hopkins men's lacrosse team from 2014-17 and most recently an assistant coach at Lehigh, was appointed the Blue Jays' offensive coordinator on June 2, 2022.  In addition to running the Blue Jay offense, Crawley also serves as the program's recruiting coordinator. Crawley's return to Homewood came after spending the previous three years as an assistant coach at Lehigh University.  At Lehigh, Crawley served as the offensive coordinator of a Mountain Hawk offense that ranked among the nation's best throughout his tenure.  Lehigh ranked 15th in the nation in scoring offense during the COVID-shortened 2020 season (14.00) and jumped into the top 10 in 2021 (14.08), when the Mountain Hawks advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2013. Overall, during Crawley's 33 games as Lehigh's offensive coordinator, the Mountain Hawks averaged just under 13 goals per game and the three single-season scoring averages of 14.08, 14.00 and 11.40 rank as the three highest averages at Lehigh in the last 20 years.  Prior to Crawley's arrival, Lehigh had not averaged more than 11 goals per game over the course of a season since 2000. Crawley began his coaching career at Notre Dame in 2018 and helped the Irish to the ACC Tournament title and a trip to the NCAA Tournament.  At Notre Dame, he worked closely with the offense and faceoff unit.  He then moved to Colgate for one season (2019) before joining the staff at Lehigh. A two-time captain and two-time Honorable Mention USILA All-American, Crawley played in all 64 games during his four-year career at Johns Hopkins and started the final 30 as a junior and senior.  He totaled 70 career goals and 30 assists, including career highs of 21 goals and 11 assists for 32 points as a sophomore in 2015, when he helped lead the Blue Jays to the NCAA Semifinals and the inaugural Big Ten Tournament title.  He earned a spot on the 2015 NCAA All-Tournament team after a four-goal performance against Maryland in the NCAA Semifinals. In addition to his time at Johns Hopkins, Crawley has also played professional lacrosse in both Major League Lacrosse and the Premier Lacrosse League.  He was selected 33rd overall by the Charlotte Hounds in the 2017 MLL Draft and played two seasons for the Hounds.  He rang up 26 goals and 10 assists in the MLL before moving to Atlas LC in the PLL, where he has played four seasons."

Processed food industries are thriving in developing countries, despite government commitment to eradicating non-communicable diseases, prevention programs aim at reducing obesity, type two diabetes, and sugary beverage consumption. What's more, political leaders in some countries are reluctant to regulate the marketing and sale of these products, particularly among vulnerable groups, like children and the poor. Like me, you might be asking yourself: why? Our guest today is the author of a new book, "Junk Food Politics: How Beverage and Fast Food Industries Are Reshaping Emerging Economics." His name is Professor Eduardo Gomez, Director of the Institute of Health Policy and Politics, at Lehigh University. Interview Summary   Let's begin with a basic question, what prompted you to write the book?   Great question. It really started, I remember almost the day, when I came across this article written by the New York Times in 2016. This article started to talk about the rise in influence of the sugar industry in the US, and how they were shaping evidence about the connection between the consumption of sugar and heart disease. For many years in the past, that connection was never emphasized when it came to national dietary recommendations. This New York Times article really revealed how powerful and influential these industries were in shaping the evidence and policies on the linkages between sugar and heart disease, and our consumption of these products.   At the same time, I was doing research on obesity policy in Brazil, comparing Brazil to the US, and why Brazil was doing better in the areas of nutritional information, prevention, and awareness about childhood obesity. I also saw that obesity cases were still increasing in Brazil despite these prevention efforts. At the time, I was also starting to work in Mexico and saw similar policies in Mexico being implemented on prevention and awareness, and national dietary guidelines. But still, we saw a rise in obesity, a rise in adolescent diabetes. So those two things - the evidence about how industries manipulate data and dietary guidelines - and then how luncheon programs are really not achieving their goal of reducing childhood obesity in adolescent diabetes. Those puzzles really motivated me in writing this book to really delve deeper into this question. That really required not a journal article, but a book that would do an in-depth historical case study analysis of several countries, and to document and do interviews on how these industries are working with government. And, how government also works with industries in this area of trying to address childhood obesity, and type two adolescent diabetes.   So how did you go about collecting data for the book?   I did a qualitative comparative method, which is a bit different, as you know, from most people working in public health and epidemiological studies about childhood obesity and diabetes. That entailed a comparative historical analysis of several similar case studies. I chose cases in the emerging economies that, I think, reflected the biggest problems with obesity and diabetes in their region. But the goal of the comparison, was really to accentuate similarities between cases, and, also, the vast differences and uniqueness of the cases. I then went about doing the research through document analysis of several different sources, books, articles, policy reports, media news, talking about the issue, both in the English language, and also in the countries of Brazil and Mexico, the Spanish and Portuguese language. I did interviews with activists and researchers in several of these countries, although not all of them. I think bringing together all the different qualitative evidence was very effective in trying to thoroughly address this issue. It's a topic that has not been discussed that much. Bringing together the multiple evidence pieces took a long time.   It produced a wonderfully rich book with lots of interesting information from different sources around the world. I, for one, really appreciate what you've done. So in the book, you have very detailed case studies, as you mentioned, of a number of countries, in particular countries such as Mexico and Brazil, India, Indonesia, China and South Africa. Let's talk about a few of these countries, and then, perhaps, we can return to something that you alluded to a moment ago. That there are quite striking similarities across the countries. So what did you learn about Mexico?   I had lived in Mexico for several years doing research there, and the fast food culture and industry, and the consumption of soda, is extremely high. Compared to the US, Mexico's per capita daily consumption of soda is highest, arguably, in the world. Coca-Cola played a major role in that. Coca-Cola was in Mexico for many, many years, and the NAFTA Free Trade Agreement facilitated the arrival of Coca-Cola, and of many other kinds of ultra-processed foods and industries, into Mexico. Mexico is one of the world leaders in childhood obesity and type two diabetes. The government did, for many years, a good job of raising awareness to this issue. The National Institute of Public Health in Cuernavaca, for example, did fantastic work elevating the issue, convincing the government that something needed to be done about this ongoing health problems, especially among children and the poor.   But what I found is while there was legislation being implemented, it was, a lot of times, delayed, and those policies that were created, such as limiting the presence of sodas within schools, were not really effectively enforced. A lot of parents reporting to schools that their children were still consuming soda products. Of course, everyone knows about the soda tax that was implemented in 2014 in Mexico, becoming the first in the world to have a national soda tax. That's been a very effective effort. But there are several years in which this was debated and delayed, and for many years industries resisted improvements to the food label, which was, eventually, recently accomplished. But all of this started to point to the power and influence of major industries and their interest group.   One thing that I learned in this case is that industries also engage in several partnerships with government to try and take away the focus from regulations and improving food labels, for example. And one partnership is working with government to introduce the importance of exercise in schools. And it's something that we'll see, also, in the case of China. And so that has taken attention away, in addition to the lobbying efforts, and funding science and research sort of questions, from the efficacy of a soda tax. But one thing that was very important is that presidents also matter, and their relationships with industry. One president that really stood out was President Vincente Fox, who was a former Coca-Cola executive for the region. And that relationship facilitated industry's influence within government, and in connecting with politicians in influencing policy over years. But then later, subsequent presidents, like President Enrique Pena Nieto, worked with Nestle to address hunger eradication programs in Mexico.   So these partnerships with industry, while they are admirable in trying to eradicate hunger, they also, at the same time, bring legitimacy to these industries. This facilitates their ability to influence policy. Those was some of the key lessons that I found in Mexico.   So moving to a different part of the world, and, of course, to a different political system, what did you learn about China?   China has seen a burgeoning growth in consumption of soda, and also fast food chain establishments. We've also seen a huge increase in childhood obesity, and adolescent type two diabetes. But was really striking about this case, is that the government has done a great job, not only of increasing awareness about the challenge, but emphasizing the importance of exercise as a primary way to try and address the issue and why this particular approach. Instead of regulation limiting sales and access to foods for children and the poor, in trying to emphasize this idea of exercise. Now I found that through the International Life Sciences Institute (ILSI), Coca-Cola, and other industry, had an influence. The ILSI found partners within the Ministry of Health, who created the ISLI of China, and through these partnerships, in these connections between I-S-L-I and major health officials, the idea of emphasizing exercise as a solution started to infiltrate, and really shaped government legislation. I cite the excellent work by Susan Greenhalgh at Harvard, who documented a lot of how this was happening. At the same time, we saw industries partnering with government, and government officials emphasizing sports and exercise as an approach. But surprisingly, there was really no effort to introduce regulations on advertising and marketing. Similar to what we've seen in the US, no effective food regulations or mandates on quality of sugar and products. That really was startling, given the huge problem that China's having with childhood obesity. But again, government partnerships with industry on eradicating poverty and achieving economic growth, certainly doesn't help, and overlooks the need to introduce regulations, and sees industry as a partner in trying to achieve China's broader efforts on poverty reduction and economic development.   We're certainly starting to see some themes emerge in the stories that you're telling. So let's go to the third continent. What did you find in South Africa?   South Africa is a very interesting case, where, again, like these other countries, you've seen a rise in obesity and type two diabetes. It's been very challenging because culturally, being overweight has been seen as a sign of health for some. Being thin, being associated with diseases, such as HIV, AIDS, or tuberculosis. So, one of the major hurdles that governments, and activists, have also been trying to address, is information about the health implications of being overweight. And then also the increasing public's knowledge about type two diabetes. Similar to the other cases, you saw government efforts, beginning in 2015, to address the national obesity issue. But there are very, very few effective policies introduced, such as regulations on advertising and marketing. These have basically been introduced as plans and ideas, with no concrete efforts yet. The government relied on self-regulation, where industries pledge not to market their products to children, and to be more responsible in that. Also, there have been no regulations on sales of these foods in and around schools, and no improvements in labels. Why has that been the case? Again, industry has been very involved through policy partnerships, working with government to emphasize, again, exercise. Companies, like Nestle, have done a very good job in providing nutritional education and training to schools. While admirable, these partnerships have distracted the government from pursuing needed regulations, and trying to address these issues, seeing that these industries are partners, and seeing no real need to introduce these regulations. But again, at the same time, presidents matter. You've had presidents with very strong connections to industries. The current president, for example, having been in consulting profession, direct ties to fast food industry. And they've seen these industries as a critical partner in addressing economic development, but especially job security, and job growth, and seeing them as a need to be there in prospering. But, at the same time, you've also seen a civil society that is starting to emerge, but has been challenged by industry's relationship with other nutrition researchers and activists, and not being able to work and create a broader mobilization effort to address this issue. %he activist community is just now starting to emerge. They don't have as many allies in society that they can work with. As we saw in China, that civic activist movement has been just very slowly emerging. That's been limiting as well.   These comments, so far, are consistent across countries. Focusing on physical activity, for example, diverting attention away from industry influences and regulations that might affect them, weakening regulations, and things like that. What do you see as the main themes that are weaving through this picture?   There are several themes. One is policy partnerships - industries partnering with government, and how this helps industry convince policy makers that regulations are not necessary. Those studying commercial determinants of health and nutrition, we all know this, but this has been especially prominent in the emerging economies. Another, is corporate social responsibility activities. There have been so many cases, wonderful efforts, that major soda and food industries are doing to increase education, nutritional awareness and training, even food regulation, and quality of food For example, with street vendors. But again, these CSR activities are taking away, and distracting from the need for regulations, while, at the same time bringing legitimacy, and social legitimacy, community legitimacy, to their product. Another major theme is that these corporate social responsibility activities, for example, sponsoring or providing support to NGOs, that contributes to dividing society. So, when industries partner with certain activists, or NGOs, that question the importance of particular policies, or libertarian principles, of having the right to eat whatever food that you want, whenever industries partners with these researchers and activists, it takes away from the number of activists, real activists, working on the issue can partner with. There are many cases where I interviewed activists are saying that, they don't have as many allies that they can work with, because of these other people. These nutrition researchers working with industry. So that was a major issue that came across. Another was institutions. Institutions matter very much, specifically, their ability to include civil societal interest in ideas. In the case of Brazil, I talk about Consell, a national council that was within the office of the presidency. And under the previous Lula administration, civil society had access to the office of the presidency in providing nutritional information, and recommendations for policy. Under the Bolsonaro administration, the Consell Institution was no longer present. But now it has reemerged again. That was the one case where institutions really mattered in guaranteeing access to activists. In all the other countries, these kinds of institutions were not present. A final theme is that presidential politics and policy matters considerably. We often point the finger to industries, you know, blaming them for everything, but this book really shows that we also need to blame presidents for not being more careful in the kinds of partnerships they engage in with industries. Even though their intentions may be admirable in trying to eradicate hunger, eradicate poverty, achieve economic job growth, by partnering with soda and food industries, they're also providing legitimacy to them, and providing excuses, not really to pursue regulations that may harm their prosperity. Those were the main themes that came out in the book.   So a number of things have been tried around the world to counter industries influence. What do you think are some of the most promising?   The most promising are effective regulations on advertising and sales of products. And there are very, very, very few great examples, but one, Chile, has seen amazing progress in introducing restrictions on the advertising of foods, by law, eliminating the usage of cartoons on cereal boxes, something that, of course, we haven't achieved yet in the US. That's been very effective in addressing this issue. I think that these sales and advertising regulations are just the most difficult to achieve, but can really get to the root of the problem, which is decreasing children's awareness, and interest, in food products. Another is incorporating civil society within institutions. The more the governments can provide a venue for activists to have presence within the Ministry of Health, and to actually introduce policy ideas, that can be very effective. I think that that's been, with the exception of Brazil for several years, absent in all of the countries that I looked at in my book. I think that's something that needs to really be taken more seriously. And then another, is investing in civil society, providing more funding for nutrition researchers, activists, and NGOs, that are trying to raise this issue about childhood obesity, but also the commercial determinants of health. That is still much needed area. The Bloomberg Foundation has done great work in Mexico, but we need a lot more in other emerging economies, and lot more support for these activists. These are efforts that can really help to address this issue.   I'm happy you mentioned the Bloomberg Foundation, because, thanks to them, a number of these things have been evaluated, which really helps other countries be informed about what might be effective, and on what might not be. Are there things that are not being done that you would think might be considered?   I do think that it's time that presidents around the world, and other health officials leaders, question their partnerships with industry. Question if it's really effective. I believe that there should be more of an effort to not have industry involved in nutrition policies, non-communicable disease policies, and, especially, policies that focus on childhood obesity. I think the case of China really showed that that can be a major problem. I think that one, political leaders need to take more leadership in reevaluating the effectiveness of these partnerships, and if they're appropriate. Another is that laws on regulations of conflict of interest need to be well established. Really, in none of the cases that I looked at are there federal laws and regulations on if industries can contribute money to nutrition conferences, sponsoring of nutrition conferences. In Brazil, they are now starting to address this, but in other countries, this has not really been addressed yet. This is unacceptable when there are industries that have conflict of interest, and are supporting nutrition scientists and researchers. One of the things that really needs to be done is increasing government, or foundation, support for nutrition scientists in these emerging economies, so they are not interested in working with industry. Finally, there just needs to be a lot more of a government commitment to civic inclusion in these kinds of policies. We all know the civil society matters. Of course, government officials will always say, of course, you know, we're listening to civil society. But the evidence on to what extent activists have access to national institutions and policy, is very, very scarce. I'm just not convinced that governments are doing enough to include activists into their national policy discussions in these emerging economies. With the exception, I think, of Mexico, now, hopefully, with Brazil, the other emerging economies that I talk about in the book really have not achieved, and I think that needs to be addressed. These are the issues that really need to be addressed going forward.   Bio   Dr. Eduardo J.

College lacrosse will have a new #1 on Monday as #3 Virginia upended Notre Dame's hopes of holding the top spot beyond this weekend by defeating the Irish on the road, 15-10.

In today's episode, Connor discusses how to handle Andrew Painter's workload at the Major League level this year if/when the 19 year old phenom gets the call up to the Philadelphia Phillies. Should there be an innings limit? Should he start in Lehigh? Or should it be a year where you just let him loose? Next, reports out of spring training are that Aaron Nola and the Philadelphia Phillies are discussing a long term extension, but how realistic is it that the deal gets done before the season? Finally, in Off The Poll, the responders and Connor do not agree about who should be the closer for the Phillies this year. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
