I retired a month ago & became a coach after playing through college. Made my professional coaching debut last Wednesday. Yesterday I hit GB’s with my fungo. Today I became a professional baseball player & recorded a hit. Not sure what you did up there in Heaven Mom, but thanks.
I’m super excited to announce that I will be joining the Missoula PaddleHeads’ Coaching Staff this 2022 season. Thank you

I was not the greatest little leaguer and I had a pretty major surgery at 12. My love for the game is what kept me going. My abilities flourished post surgery. Best decision I ever made was to keep working hard and continue playing.
If someone tells a kid to quit baseball before they hit puberty, never listen to them again.
I don’t care how bad you are as a 10U, 12U, 14U or frosh/soph. Quit at these levels and you’ll always wonder “what if”.
5 years & 4 schools later....I’m finally a college graduate! Thank you to everyone who helped along the way, especially my family!

1. He doesn’t give up after the initial clank.
2. He has great spatial awareness. He knows where he is at & how to fight for an out.
3. His athleticism & instinct take over.

Well, that was fun! I’ve been released, but it’s okay.
@michael_schlact
says I’d make a great coach someday. That day is today lol. Back to full-time coaching duties. Go PaddleHeads!
Such a humbling way to go out. I’m so graciously fulfilled with the 20+ year baseball career I had. Baseball has been one of the biggest blessings God’s given me. I’m excited to trade in the title “Infielder” for “Coach” for another 20+ years.

Today is my birthday (🎉). If you chose to observe/celebrate it & want to participate in it, here's my wishlist:
Tell your Mom & Dad you love them. That's it. For my birthday, I want you to really let them know. Text, call, stop by their work etc...
This is my new favorite video of Ron Washington,
“Be there when it hits the ground. I’m going to go a little bit further out. Now don’t change anything, Just be there when it hits the ground.” 🐐

A year ago, we buried my Mother, Laura. She brought me into this world, so it was only fitting that I laid her earthly body to her final resting place. It was a beautiful service where we listened to her favorite songs & read from her favorite book, The Bible. ❤️

Hey J-Row,
I’m too embarrassed to talk about it a lot, but thanks for giving me CPR two summers ago. If you didn’t jump in the water and save me, I wouldve drowned. You deserve all the good that comes your way! 🙌🏻

Do I toss or flip? What to do when you’re too far for a traditional thumb-up flip, yet too close for a toss? The thumb-down flip is great for those in-between distances from 2B to the SS at 2nd for the DP.

Baseball IQ:
Having a high baseball IQ & great instincts can make a huge difference in a ball game. This play saved a run. Attention to details. Study the game.💡
My 5th college season starts tomorrow and 4 years ago today I snapped my wrist diving for a ball which lead to:
redshirting,
transferring,
Two JuCO’s,
Hip Surgery
and finding my home here in Oregon.
Thankful for another opportunity. 👏🏼
3 years ago today, my Mom asked me if I wanted to go to In-N-Out with her. I never said no. We got some shakes & listened to blink-182 in the car. I didn’t know it then, but it was our last Mom/Son late night adventure. Thinking of those who are missing someone this Christmas. ❤️
She's a time bomb, trying to take you out,
The ticking of her heart is the only sound
She's a time bomb, about to detonate
You try to cut her wires but you're way too late
I’ll be managing the Maples. This will be a great opportunity for current FA’s, college grads, & any one else looking to get innings/at-bats. Feel free to reach out with any questions!
The newly created Southern Winter League - a developmental league operating out of Mexico - is currently looking for players. The season is scheduled to run from September 11th - October 3rd.
Rehabbed back from hip surgery in less than a year & enrolled in my 4th college just to be able to continue playing the game I love.
Now this.
I just want to play 😪
Concordia community: I’ve been fortunate to spend a portion of my life with you guys. I’ll always cherish my time as an Eagle. You all were such a blessing. Much love! Jeremiah 29:11 💛💚💪🏼
