With a week off due to the weather keep the following items in mind…

• Upperclassmen – do we want to have Thursday mornings available as an option to get in another throwing day?  I need to know so I can reserve the fieldhouse.  We would start at 6 AM and it would just be a day to do some pre-throw, stretch out your arm, and post throw work
• Try to get some work in if weather conditions allow over the next few days…this includes:
  • Throwing
    • implement some of the positional stuff we do
    • stretch arm out…if possible
  • Pitchers
    • try to get off a mound (58′ at about 85 to 90%, 20-25 pitches with change-ups and offspeed mixed in)
  • Hitting
    • implement some of the hitting stuff we do
    • challenge yourself – SEE VELO
  • Speed Work & Mobility
    • implement some of the stuff we do
• Pitchers – your heavier mound work days will be on Friday’s starting 1/26 so be available on those days to do our routine

• ON OFF DAYS REMEMBER THE FOLLOWING OPTIONS:

• • If you throw your arm should tell you distance, # of throws, etc.

• • If you throw incorporate a pre-throw and post-throw routine

• • If P’s throw incorporate change-ups and throw with intent (command your throws)

• • Days between throwing days do recovery work such as JBands, mobility, CARS (more intense mobility work), tubing, basic plyocare drills, etc.

• Group Competition will be Friday, January 26 for home basketball game vs. Chesterton
• FINALLY – THOSE GOING TO THE WINTER FORMAL ON 1/20…
  • Be Safe
  • Look out for each other
  • Make Good Decisions
  • IT WOULD BE GREAT IF I COULD GET A GROUP PHOTO OF THE BASEBALL GUYS IN ATTENDANCE FOR TWITTER
