TUSA, All-Americans bring home Gold

Photo: Perfect Game

The Team USA 18U team posted a perfect 9-0 record during the COPABE 18U/AAA Pan American Championship in Cartagena, Colombia to bring home a Gold medal. They collectively out-scored their opponents 88-8, beating Canada 12-2 in the final game.

Perfect Game All-American Albert Almora was named the tournament MVP, hitting .421 while leading all players with 11 runs batted in and nine stolen bases.

Fellow All-American and primary outfielder Jesse Winker was named the tournament's top pitcher, going 2-0 in two appearances while not allowing a run to cross the plate in over 10 innings.

Other All-Americans named to the All-Tournament team include Alex Bregman and Addison Russell. Russell hit a grand slam in Team USA's championship game against Canada on Sunday, the big blow in the team's seven-run first inning that quickly put the contest out of reach.

A total of 11 All-Americans graced Team USA's 20-man roster, with David Dahl, Carson Fulmer, Joey Gallo, Nelson Rodriguez, Clate Schmidt, Hunter Virant and Walker Weickel joining Almora, Winker, Bregman and Russell.

All 20 of the participants that travelled to Colombia have previously participated at a Perfect Game event.

In addition to the 11 that played in the 2011 Perfect Game All-American Classic presented by Rawlings, a total of 16 players participated in the 2011 National Showcase conducted in Fort Myers, Florida. This includes All-Tournament second baseman Gavin Cecchini, pitchers Troy Conyers, Chase DeJong and Cole Irvin, as well as two-way star Carson Kelly.

Nick Travieso and Mikey White were among the 12 players from the Team USA 18U roster that competed in last month's 2011 WWBA World Championship.

Of the 18 players from the class of 2012, 17 are currently ranked among Perfect Game's top 80 prospects.

The 2013 class was represented by catchers Jeremy Martinez and Chris Okey, currently ranked the fifth and 20th best prospects in their class respectively.  Martinez participated in the 2011 PG National Games in San Diego in mid-August, while Okey was one of the top performers at both the Jr. National Showcase and the WWBA Underclass World Championship.

One other All-American,
Cody Poteet, was a member of the Team USA 18U squad during the summer, but did not travel with the team for the COPABE Championship.

Congratulations to all of the players and the USA Baseball organization for representing the United States of America and claiming the Gold medal.

Wolforth Throwing Mentorship: Article 61

Demystifying the Curveball, Pitch Counts, and Weighted Balls- Part 1 You know what I love about the holidays? Good food, time with family, and the unspoken rule that nobody brings up religion or politics at the dinner table.   Why? Because they're powder kegs. Topics that bring out deep-seated beliefs and strong emotions.  Well, I accidentally lit one of those powder kegs recently, except it wasn't at the dinner table. It was on social media.   Our team posted a short clip of me at Boot Camp making what I thought was a pretty straightforward point: simply avoiding the curveball is far from a guarantee of arm health.   I wasn't trying to be provocative. I was just stating what I believed to be obvious after 30 years of doing this work.  But boy, did a few people have problems with it.   It became one of the most discussed posts in Ranch history....

Back-to-Back MLK East for Phillies

TBT Phillies Scout run rules for second straight MLK East Championship The 14U TBT Phillies Scout Team overtook A3 Academy Futures 14-6 in the final game to win their second straight 2026 MLK East Championship. Though the skies were blue and the sun was out in Fort Myers, Florida, the air was very chilly. The wind whipped through the palm trees as players, parents and friends piled into the 5-Plex Player Development Complex bundled up in blankets, hoodies and beanies.  The A3 Academy Futures were first up to bat - and the TBT Phillies struggled through the first frame. The first run came across on a balk; the second came soon after off a double from Gabriel Messing. “I was surprised that they scored right away off the jump,” Kingston George said, an outfielder for TBT Phillies Scout and this year’s MVP of the 14U East MLK championship. “We were kind of quiet...

MLK West Scout Notes: Days 3-4

MLK West Scout Notes: Days 1-2 Markus Chandler, RHP, Westside HS Class of 2027 A little on the undersized side as a sub 6 footer, but Chandler can generate some velo and spin.  Spun 3 frames of hitless ball for Spects National with zero walks and 6 strikeouts.  Committed to Kansas State, the righty ran the fastball to 92, living 89-92 pumping the zone with 75 percent strikes.  Looked like two different breaking balls, with the SL 80/81 (spin in 2500’s) and curveball 75/76.  No hard contact, little contact at all off the righty in this dominant outing. To follow up the pitching performance, Chandler swung the bat well on Championship Monday (Trademark Pending) with 5 RBI and three hits on the day, regularly on the barrel.  Trevor Alons, RHP, Centennial HS Class of 2028 Lean framed sophomore with a quick, whippy arm.  Playing up a few classes, you might...
