That enables specific funding...ND does not have something like that and does not at all engage former players/ baseball alums in any way


Now's the time to change that with a new staff..

soon to be hired.

The team will need outside sources of funding to be competitive.

Like ND used to be

I never really even considered the Tech that is being used in MLB now days. I know that when I watch the Astros that the commentators always tell you about bat speed and stuff like that, I hadn't really considered how it affected pitching. Maybe that was what Trevor Bauer was complaining about when he wondered how when pitchers go to the Astros they seem to get better!

When it comes to player development, virtually all major league teams utilize Rapsodo tracking or similar devices, which measure the angle, spin and break of pitches. About half own Edgertronic cameras, which capture imperceptible differences in hand position and release points, according to officials with both companies.
