Kevin Robbins replied to Dave's discussion Not throwing strikes...Any suggestions would be appreciated"alot of time when people have trouble finding the strike zone...its a problem with balance. my coach always had us pitch on a 5 count system (wind up)....1- step back with Left (in my case) foot...2- pivot and turn Right foot...3- leg/ glove raise.…"
Kevin Robbins replied to Joe Janish's discussion Coaching Young Catchers - Leg Strength in the group Catchers and Catching Coaches"let me add this was when i was in high school so i was using them for work..sprints and hills, sprints and hills... not jumping off stairs, ramps, etc. i figure i probably dont have to say this to the adults, but you might have to remind the kids…"
Kevin Robbins replied to Joe Janish's discussion Coaching Young Catchers - Leg Strength in the group Catchers and Catching Coaches"when i was catching, my coach made me buy some rollerblades...and i think young kids would like that... his theory though, or atleast what he told me, was 1: little stress on the knees (not like running) your knees are gonna take enough abuse just…"

- Type of hitter... Power? Average? Slap? Pull?
- im a good average hitter,usually a pull hitter, i dont strike out much, unfortunately this year i was pretty weak and had all singles...and 1 double, my OBP is REALLY good, good eye at the plate take lots of walks, get hit by pitches. but obviously my SLG was not good. so, this off-season ive started doing P90X in hopes of becoming a stronger hitter to improve my SLG, and of course strengthen my throwing arm, which is always a good thing right
- If you pitch, what type of pitcher are you... Power? Ground ball, Fly ball, Knuckleball?
- i pitched in high school and luckily now we have a strong enough rotation im like the 6th or 7th guy so dont get used much...i throw a knuckleball... when im in shape to pitch i can throw a slider....and a change, my arm slot is bad very low...so my ball has good tailing action
- I currently:
- Play Baseball
- Baseball Playing Experience:
- Little League, High School, 18+
- Baseball Coaching Experience:

- Who is your favorite hitter and why?
- i was always impressed by tony gwynns fundamentals and work and due to him still do tee work. i like good avg hitters that dont strike out much im a big joe mauer fan, of course pujols, and am enjoying when i get the chance to see hanley ramirez and cant wait for jason heyward to make it up to the majors
- Who is your favorite pitcher and why?
- well you have to like halladay for his ability to pitch complete games rare now...and of course greg maddux for his study of the game and hitters
- More About Me:
- i was transferred high schools my senior year and the coach and i didnt get along at the new school, i wish id have gone to a smaller school to continue playing but hindsight is 20-20 and at the time i wasnt enjoying ball at the time...so i went to a big school and have been playing MSBL ever since though there was a hiatus when my original team moved up in the divisions before could but ive been back for 2 years now and am falling in love with the game all over again
