Days 4 to 7 at Milwaukee Brewers Minor League Complex

Every morning I started with the infield early work, learning how to do a better infielders with a perfect basics ones. We put great emphasis on the basics of fielding: watch the ball, flex the legs, glove on the dirt, hand relaxed.....

I usually went to ear Hitting Coordinator Sandy Guerrero in the cages. He worked mental part at bat as well as improve small details that take you to improve your performance at the plate. Always with a faster swing.

After the throwing program always was a throw or glove drill: Rundown drill, Four Corners on the Run.....this is interesting to create a competitive atmosphere before the IPS. I went to saw the OF workout. They use a lot of drills throwing the ball with the hand and sometimes, the guys here thought that this in for kids, but is really effective to use for game situations and footworks recreate. I’d like this kind of drills.

At day 4 during the game in Surprise against the Royals I had another beautiful experience coaching at 1B. I’ll have another one in the nexts days (picture is from “Advanced” IL)

Is time for baserunnnig practice and
remember how to advance from 2B to 3B.  As well, other days we practiced run from 1B to 3B, 2B to HP and sliding or DP busters. They practiced how two slide for both sides. The players will have the resources needed to respond correctly depending on the game situation and slide correctly.DP busters is very fun! All parts of the games were worked. This is very important!!

Day 5 I was focused in PFP and video work with the pitchers. Impressed me how they analyze game situations, pitching sequences and location, the reflection of the pitching coaches and pitchers. Of course, here we don’t have the same software or human resources and the time to prepare all this. Consider it important that the players can be seen themselves as made ​​the plays to improve his “iconognosis” and “mecanognosis”.

Day 6 is Saturday and is a little bit relaxed day. The IL game is at home at 10:00 am so we did the regular things early in the morning and worked in the cage with the guys don’t play this day.

Sunday is a day off.
