Living in Indianapolis, all I had heard was the word "super" for the last two weeks. However,

The same conversation can and should be had in bullpens across America.  Many pitchers - both starters and relievers – over-think the bullpen and let it affect their mindset.  The bullpen is nothing more than an area to get loose ...

Over the years, we’ve seen our fair share of big-time prospects at the Super 60 Showcase. But the overall talent at the 10^th annual Super 60 Showcase on Sunday, Feb. 5 clearly was the meatiest of them all.

The 10^th annual Super 60 Pro Showcase is set for Sunday, Feb. 5 at the Max-McCook Athletic & Exposition Center. The Super 60 is a real treat, certainly my favorite of the year. Last year’s event was incredible, providing further proof that, despite being cold-weather states, the talent is as strong as anywhere.

 The Indiana high school baseball season is finally here!  Winter showed off its ugly face again this past weekend, so get out the hot chocolate and break out the hand warmers, because the forecast for most of this week is COLD!

With that being said, I wanted to throw some thoughts, expectations, and even a few rules out there for you fans, coaches, and yes, even you umpires!!!

Illinois always produces at least one high draft pick a year. In past years, it was fairly easy to identify the No. 1 guy.  So who’s the top prospect in Class of 2012? While there are several strong candidates, the answer is far from clear.
