I am 15 years old. This is my third year playing baseball with local teams. I pitch at 70 mph. I want lessons in pitching and hitting as I never had a private coach. Please help me find a coach in the Silver Spring, MD area. Thank you.
Where can I get Major League Baseball’s pitchers Daily Pitch Counts on a daily basis?
Please write me if you know the answer.
I am a high school pitching coach still learning the ins and outs and want to know if it’s good to ice while jogging poles after pitching in a game or in the pen? I would also like to know what a good pole routine is as I’m currently having them run 2 poles for each inning pitched or a minimum for 4 poles. Should I increase this? I am also in the process of teaching the kids how to tell me whether they have pain or fatigue after throwing. Keep in mind I have zero P.O.’s, each one of my pitchers plays the field as numbers don’t work out. This being said I am trying to keep pitch counts low to keep their arms healthy. Thank you in advance and I hope to hear from you very soon.
I manage a little league team (majors division) and your advice and instruction here are really helpfull for me in coaching these kids!! Thank you SO MUCH Doug for having this resource available
Thanks Jeff,
Hopefully there will be much more valuable instruction to come.
