One of our favorite people ever Mark Guthrie joins us today to talk Florida Burn Baseball as well as give great advice on how to get coaches to notice you.  If you are a 2022 or 2023 and want to play baseball in College we highly recommend you listen to this podcast.   Mark not only co-founded the Florida Burn but played in the Major Leagues where he won a World Series Ring with the 1991 Minnesota Twins. The Florida Burn is one of the top Travel Baseball organizations in the Country and we feel Mark's brings a unique philosophy when it comes to player development.  Follow Baseball Dadz on Twitter @baseballdadz1 Follow Baseball Dadz on Facebook  Email: [email protected]

In this episode our guest is a country star we are really big fans of, Conner Smith. Connor played in the LLWS when he was younger and could have played Baseball in College but knew even as a kid he wanted to stand on stage and sing his songs. Conner brings a really good perspective on the journey of playing in the Little League World Series and then in high school. His first single is "Learn from it" after this episode if you're not already a fan of Conner you will be!    Follow Baseball Dadz on Twitter @baseballdadz1 Follow Baseball Dadz on Facebook  Email: [email protected]

We have had many people ask about "What does the NCAA extra year of eligibility mean" ?  Plus Juco now gets 2 extra years.  We once again have one of our favorite People Central Alabama Community College Head Coach Larry Thomas "LT" on to explain this in detail.  Larry was drafted by the White Sox in the 2nd round of the 1992 Draft and played in the big leagues as well as on the Double-A Birmingham Barons with Michael Jordan. LT walks us through the extra eligibility and what it could mean for High School and College players.  This episode is not meant to scare you but it's important you know where some Coaches heads are on this issue.   Follow Baseball Dadz on Twitter @baseballdadz1 Follow Baseball Dadz on Facebook    Email: [email protected]

Our friend Chris is a really good Umpire. In this episode he will answer your email questions about stuff like "Dropped Third Strike" and  "Batter Interference" as well as "How you can and should talk to an Umpire". This is a good episode for parents that want to learn some basics but it is also good for older players on good and bad ways to communicate with the Umpire.  And we also learn that Jeff has a secret desire to become an Ump so he can ring up 9 year old's at the plate. Chris advises Jeff on where to go to Umpire School as well.   Follow Baseball Dadz on Twitter @baseballdadz1 Follow Baseball Dadz on Facebook    Email: [email protected]

The Dadz discuss the “crazy parent”. There are many degrees of crazy parents, but the guys speak specifically about the biggest no-no in high school sports in general.  This mistake could end your kid's career as a student-athlete.
