B0BiskindaC00L when he hits he occasionally leans back on his front heel after he steps when he is swinging therefore he loses power. And he needs to work on speed since he wasn't anything special in fielding or hitting
Well, as a matter of fact I did! I am trying to watch all sorts of baseball/softball recruiting videos to see what I might want to do or add to mine. For example, out of the videos I have already watched, this is the only one to include fielding balls at a base from other players. The ones I watched only included fielding the ball of a hit or bunt.
heres the issue i have with people complaining about his weight transfer: whatever works works. Ted Williams focused way more on wrist snap for power, not as much with weight transfer. If he can find ways to get base hits and it works for him, there shouldnt be an issue on exactly how he does it
So Mr. Phelps flopped and played 2 games in one season for the 2019 Abilene Christian Wildcats and struck out twice in his 2 plate appearances. Haven’t seen an update to his stats since 04/16/2019

BBDog Gaming very good analysis. College recruiters would look at that and see it’s a very dishonest way to do that drill. Can’t REALLY see how we can evaluate his pop up, when his hand is practically on the ball already. No one is going to catch an 85 mph heater with someone at bat with their hand their. If they are, I have a few friends that run catchers camps we can refer him to.
Gabreol Aiken There’s no way you can know a runner is stealing before the pitch is even thrown. The pitcher would probably just step off and throw over anyways. It’s horrible technique to practically have your hand in the glove. Foul tip, broken hand/wrist/arm for sure 80 mph fastball, miss handle/time that catch, broken hand. I’ve been an umpire for 13 years now from high school , college and Indy ball, my father was minor league/college/Indy ball umpire and even managed a few successful Indy teams when he retired; I’ve NEVER seen a GOOD catcher do something like that in a game or even practice.
Fuck that's a nice baseball Diamond. I'm telling you, you guys in America are so lucky to have the field you do. I always see guys playing on these AAA quality fields on youtube. It's SO rare for us in Canada to have a field like this to play on. Nice moves out there kid, Good luck!!
harlemhornet yeah I'm in Canada as well and my closes ball diamond has no grass infield shitty dirt no mound crappy backstop outfield grass is garbage and we have no fence or benches and I'm just outside toronto
Great stuff! A couple things that need a little work: blocking and throw downs. First blocking. Instead of throwing your legs underneath yourself, try gaining ground by sliding the shin guards. If you block by staying in place or even moving backwards, the ball will hit you and bounce off to the side. Also, try getting your hand behind your glove. Furthermore, try not to jump when your block. Push off the balls of your feet. These three improvements combined will create a nice and compact block. For throw downs try not to step to your left when you come out of your crouch. You want to take a small step forward. One thing that will really help your throws is letting the ball come to you. Instead of reaching for the ball, let it get to you to create a quicker transfer. By stepping forward and having a quicker transfer, you will stay more vertical and your throws will be more on a line. Overall you are a great baseball player. Good luck.
Everyone’s getting so mad at the critique comments, if you have a brain or play baseball you would know his swing isn’t great. The only thing that makes him a good hitter is his power
Yeah the fundamentals on those catcher blocks were a but shaky. Looks like he plays 3rd and 1st more naturally. Probably catching cause of that cannon arm. But still a really solid all around player
Need to sit back more in the swing. You are springing forward instead of having your upper body behind your front leg when landing. This is going to make hitting high velocity fastballs very tough. You also spin when you swing, instead of drive through the ball. Think about your back knee driving down into your front ankle. This will take away the squashing of the bug that you are doing.
I played division 2 college baseball and just graduated this year. My advice to anyone else making a recruiting video is to do the hitting portion first. You have more energy and will hit better. In college defense isn't nearly as important as hitting. If you can hit they'll find a spot for you somewhere.
bro your like 11 years old, wtf do u know about baseball. And dont give me sum bullshit saying that your "16 and committed to Vanderbilt" fuck outa here
I’d pick him up at the juco level as a utility player. First thing I’d work on offensively is is staying back a tad longer. He’s a dead pull hitter as well. Top tier juco pitchers would wear him out with breaking pitches. Other than that: solid mechanics and a good full swing of the stick. Keep working, I hope you’re lighting up the stats in College.
All the haters. Being perfect isn't a prerequisite for being recruited by a college baseball program. Having some decent stats in HS, solid fundamentals, being athletic with good hand-eye coordination and being a decent student along with a little luck being found is a good recipe for making a college squad. Without sifting through the comments, my crystal ball says he most likely found a spot on a collegiate team.
He sadly went to community college, I hope you understand how damn difficult it is for someone to be in the mlb or go d1 the amount of time,effort, and work that has to be put in at school, on the field, and off the field. It’s insane
He went to a DII school Arm is weak for D1 level. Loses power from hips when swinging at times. Fielding is nothing special. He’s on turf taking weak grounders.
He jumps up before he blocks. If you don't know what I mean when he is blocking there 2 types of things you usually want to do. Slide toward the pitcher is one, straight down. He is goin straight down which means he should not have upward movement. I am starting on the varsity team at catcher as a sophomore so I am pretty good to say so myself. Just saying his pop time didn't look that great either. If he works on these he'll be good
+Packers are champs 2010 Lol says nothing about you. I started at 2nd my freshman year on varsity and I really don't think I am God's gift to the earth. I'm a junior now.
Agar1999 looking back at the cringe of this comment is funny. I forgot I said this. Lol I completely lied about starting on varsity. I’m just a sophomore now and I’m on jv but i can’t even catch anymore because I’m not physically cleared to.
Few things. Don't keep your hand so close to the glove when you're catching. You miss, you could break a hand. Also pop time should be quicker, because if pop time is slow the runner is safe. When you're blocking, you're jumping a bit. Just drop your legs and fall to the ground not jump. Probably should stick to first and third. Fielding was decent. At third, If you have time, instead of scooping, get I front of the ball to prevent errors. Also your side arm throwing is limiting you. You also need to work A bit more on your arm strength. Also when you say tag make sure it's loud enough to hear. Lastly, when batting, if you rotate your hips more, you'll notice you have a lot more power. Also more bat speed will help. You seem to be getting under it a lot so try to bring it up to center it better. Definitely got a lot of work to possibly get a big D1 scholarship, but overall pretty good.
Baseball is a beautiful game. The many skills needed to be a good baseball player take a long time to develop. And natural athleticism is very important.
When ever you block the ball keep your hand in a fist behind your mitt(I did the same thing you do and broke my thumb, learned it the hard way). Also when u block a ball, make sure u gain ground instead of hopping backwards and taking it off the mask and allowing base runners to advance. You don't have to take this advice but trust me, scouts will be looking at this kind of stuff. I see true potential in you to become a college player and pursue your dreams to become a major league player
Definitely throws like a catcher. 1B was very solid all around. Arm strength wise looking good from behind the plate. Not a bad swing at all but very lazy swings and let the weight shift forward on the first few.
It’s amazing how people act like it’s this kids fault the video blew up lol like he just made a video to get himself out there and it happened to blow up… how’s that his problem. Now he gets hate comments just because a video went viral. Doesn’t make sense at all 🤦🏻♂️😂
From being a catcher myself the way he gets down to block a ball he is going to break his fingers on his non glove hand because when blocking your supposed to put it behind the glove and make yourself a shield but his right arm just stays out from behind the glove. Other than that hes fine!
Just saying when you're up to bat, after you swing at a ball try to keep your balance after you swing or make contact I will make your swing look awesome!
When he was catching his move to second, there is different moves with left and right batters it the box, if there was a right handed batter he would have ran in to him every time. If he sees this plz take it in to consideration.
only thing I can think of for advice is working on a better arm. I broke mine not to long ago and built up strength again with some bands. Forget what they are called but Im sure you know what I am talking about. I did them 8 different ways in reps of 10, increasing resistance as I got stronger and in about 2 months I was good again. ( I can get the ball from right to 3rd with a little hump in it. )

You should be using all of your hips and turn that back foot around to where it's pointing right at the pitcher. Just some tips to help your hitting.
It’s amazing how people act like it’s this kids fault the video blew up lol like he just made a video to get himself out there and it happened to blow up… how’s that his problem. Now he gets hate comments just because a video went viral. Doesn’t make sense at all 🤦🏻♂️😂
I really like how he has power everywhere in the field while hitting
I lowkey thought this would be a tutorial or something about how to get recruited to a college baseball team lol
Right handed 1st basemen are supposed to spin around when turning a double play
Your pull hits are so satisfying to watch
Caleb Stevens he should attend Ohio state
From being a catcher myself the way he gets down to block a ball he is going to break his fingers on his non glove hand because when blocking your supposed to put it behind the glove and make yourself a shield but his right arm just stays out from behind the glove. Other than that hes fine!
That’s a nice field
Just saying when you're up to bat, after you swing at a ball try to keep your balance after you swing or make contact I will make your swing look awesome!
Y the recommended
When he was catching his move to second, there is different moves with left and right batters it the box, if there was a right handed batter he would have ran in to him every time. If he sees this plz take it in to consideration.
look at his batting average. He may not be a power hitter but probably gets on base more than anyone
He could make up that he hits 500..I could say I hit 700 and people would prob believe me
+Carter skipper Vlogs that ba isn't unrealistic though
+Carter skipper Vlogs look him up on max preps if you question his stats stud running back as well
Raymon Danna he hit 14 Homeruns! Of course he's a power hitter
That is true and in his bating part he was hitting balls that would be a base hit
For anyone wondering he plays now at Scottsdale community college

only thing I can think of for advice is working on a better arm. I broke mine not to long ago and built up strength again with some bands. Forget what they are called but Im sure you know what I am talking about. I did them 8 different ways in reps of 10, increasing resistance as I got stronger and in about 2 months I was good again. ( I can get the ball from right to 3rd with a little hump in it. )
