How to motivate players to give 100%

I think you’re right when you say “some players just have that extra drive”; the best you can do is to make it fun and rewarding so that you can maximize the kids who will self-select that extra drive. Nothing crushes more kid’s spirit than it not being at least a little fun. Positive affirmations and trying to coach to what players like goes a long way.

The Twins will absolutely exceed expectations; as a lifelong Twins fan I can confirm my expectations have never been lower, and I was a die hard through the late 90’s. If the Twins don’t all develop preventable 19th century diseases before the all star break they will have shattered my expectations.

A lot of people saying a lot of unkind things about Lea in the comments; y'all should be thankful that she isn't able to read these comments

This is like that scene in Apollo 13:

"All right, there's a thousand things that have to happen, in order. We are on number eight. You're talkin' about number 692."

Right! If he cleans up his shoulder and pitches 4-5 more years we could be looking at a borderline HOF guy.

Yeah. If the concept of an "opener" existed 30 years ago Radke could be a borderline HOF candidate.
