Elevating Your Game in Frederick, MD

One of the biggest issues I see in pitching development today is not arm strength, pitch design, or workload management. It is the lack of a clear plan going into bullpen sessions.
This is not about having a pitch count.
It is about having a specific focus for what you are trying to accomplish in that bullpen.

Jeremiah Wisdom Jenkins
San Francisco Giants Organization | 1B/DH | Age 22
Pease Baseball is proud to highlight the journey of Jeremiah Wisdom Jenkins, a Maryland native whose path from local high-school standout to the San Francisco Giants organization is a story of resilience, belief, and relentless work.
Jeremiah grew up with the game.
“I know it sounds cliché, but since I was a little kid I’ve always had a passion for baseball. It made me feel different.”
That feeling became his compass—guiding him through setbacks, breakthroughs, and ultimately into professional baseball.

We start playing the game of baseball because we enjoy it and have fun playing with our friends.
Then after a few years, the fun starts to fade and is replaced with the overly-competitive amateur baseball scene which promotes a rat-race mentality to attain a college scholarship and/or announce to the world via social media that we have verbally committed to college as an 8th grader (I’ll reserve my comments on verbal commitments).
Then a few years later, we focus our attention on wanting to get drafted out of high school.
Then when we get drafted, we want to get to the big leagues. When we get to the big leagues, we want to play every day. Then when we play every day, we want to sign a big contract. Then when we make more money, we want to be in the Hall of Fame. Then when we are in the Hall of Fame….
Where does it end?
What Do You Want?
It’s one of the most important questions we can ask ourselves. I’ll tell you what you want – you want your way, you want to do what you want to do, and you want what you want, now.
Every stage of your life requires a better version of yourself. You will answer the question of “what do I want?” differently when you’re 15, compared to when you’re 25, 35, 45, or 55. The younger you are the more what there is. The older you get there is less what – but there is always something that you want. Everybody wants something as they get older, but it becomes less of a thing (i.e. fancy car, bigger house, more money, etc) and more of a value (time with family, enjoying a long walk, having your health, giving back to your community, etc).
In every season of your life you will answer this question a little differently.

I’ve known Bryce what seems like forever ago. He came to me as this young and excited player, eager to learn and become a better pitcher. We hit if off right away, became very close with the entire family, and our lesson meetings were very consistent. This was back when I had just moved into Frederick from Baltimore, and was slowly meeting new players out this way. Bryce was constantly asking me about my playing career, and how I was able to make it so far. He saw my size and build and wanted to soak up as much knowledge as possible to give him that edge to be an elite competitor. He knew I was a sidearmer, and eventually he came to me one day and said, “I want to pitch EXACTLY like you”… I was unsure how to respond in the moment, because as a pitching coach you don’t just teach people to pitch identically to yourself, the goals are to help each player find their authentic movements and patterns that work for them. Bryce wasn’t having it, he wanted to learn to pitch JUST LIKE ME, there was no talking him out of it. It was truly humbling, and after some time we dove into it full steam ahead, before long his delivery looked unmistakable from my own, from the leg kick, to the arm slot, deception, cross-fire, pick-off move, mound presence, pitch shapes / breaks, he became a true protege and it was fun to watch unfold over the days, weeks, months, and years. I cannot even begin to describe the type of drive, persistence, work ethic, grit, and overall joy Bryce possessed in his training and developmental years. Everyday was fun for him to practice, and he reaped the rewards over and over again. He carried a lot of weight throughout his college experience, and was able to overcome big challenges early on, and he is now thriving in the Tampa Bay Rays organization. He is part of an amazingly supportive family, and I’m forever thankful to have been given the opportunity to train Bryce for so long, and be a part of his life and baseball journey, and we will always stay connected. It goes without saying that I’m extremely proud of all of what he has accomplished, and it is a true testament to his own work ethic and drive, which will carry him far in life beyond the game. We’ve both learned a lot about each other over the years, and I’m super thankful he was willing to share his experience as part of this series, and kick it off as the first one! — Dustin Pease

At Pease Baseball, I’m always looking for ways to bring our community closer to the game and the people who know it best. Recently, we had the opportunity to host a free infielding clinic with one of our coaches, Brett Ahalt. Brett has an incredible baseball background — a standout collegiate infielder and now one of the sharpest coaches I’ve been around.
We captured the session on video so you can go back, watch, and learn right alongside our players:

At Pease Baseball Professionals (PBP), we have a new, exciting program to roll out this year that will bring the absolute best player development experience to the local baseball community here in Frederick, MD, as well as the surrounding states, from which we draw talent who find value in the quality of instruction we provide at PBP.
After ample contemplation, in the upcoming weeks we plan to invest in a Trackman system, which will tremendously enhance our player development model. Trackman technology has become the industry leader in data tracking for professional and collegiate baseball (Any data or information you see on MLB TV broadcasts and MLB online statcast data is all provided by Trackman). Professional and NCAA collegiate programs hold Trackman data in high regard within their respective recruiting/scouting departments. This system, however, utilized in every MLB stadium across the country, comes at a very steep price, especially the Trackman model we will be purchasing that assesses both pitchers AND hitters. Therefore, we are looking for players interested in investing in their progress over time.
Many of you may be asking, what does Trackman actually do? To say the least—EVERYTHING. It tracks every single metric available for hitters and pitchers in terms of player physical movement/positioning (hitting/swing and pitching/throw mechanics) all the way to baseball trajectories, locations, spin, axis, ball flight, distance, 3D contact points, and velocity. There are more intricate pieces of data it produces and our assessment process in translating this data is what will impact player development and performance over time. Access to this information is invaluable to our development team here at PBP in terms of optimizing a blueprint of development and tracking progress. Our expertise will make this immense amount of data easier to understand, digestible, and transferable to improving our players.
Having your own personal access to this information to share with recruiters in this day and age is an invaluable asset in addition to the vast amounts of assistance it provides in developing player skill and performance. We will also be offering ‘showcase videos’ where we can attach the data to it, giving recruiters / scouts a deeper look of a players ability. This opportunity will be available to players of all ages to begin tracking and recording progress over time. Below are available options for subscribing to Trackman technology at PBP.
