Former MLB pitcher Jason Phillips visits @KWBaseball to break down his thoughts on developing pitchers for the next level, as well as the state of travel baseball today.
We discuss:
- How he was discovered by MLB scouts in north/central Pennsylvania before "showcase baseball"
- While with the Pirates, what a coach said that changed the trajectory of his career.
- The value of patience and playing the "long game"
- What he "gave up" to get to the big leagues
- The hitters who gave him the most trouble in the big leagues
and much more!
