As the winter months creep along, the good news is New York Nine baseball is getting underway. This past Saturday night at Pro Swing in Port Chester, athletes began to shake the rust of the offseason under the watchful eye and tutelage of our outstanding coaching staff. Players were actively warmed up and received a full conditioning set prior to departing for the evening. Defensive specifics were worked on as infielders, catchers and outfielders worked on mechanics and position specific drills. With James Mondesir, pitchers worked on dry mechanics and will do proper offseason work in the upcoming two weeks. Position players were working on their swings at one of our stations emphasizing a different offensive activity. There is still limited space available in the upcoming two weeks, as the workouts continue on Saturday Dec 13 and 20 from 6-8pm. Email us at info@newyorknine.org to reserve one of the last spots.

For the next 2 weeks in Port Chester, we are also lucky enough to have Greg Morhardt, the discovering and signing scout of the planet’s best player, Mike Trout of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, with us doing individual player evaluations. Morhardt will be doing a limited number of evaluations on behalf or Elite Guidance. There is an additional fee per individual participant to be evaluated. Email us at info@newyorknine.org to reserve your spot and be professionally evaluated by “the best talent evaluator I have ever been around” – Jeff Trout, father of Mike.

Our acclaimed winter workout/tryout which takes place at the beautiful and spacious Brunswick School on the New York Border is quickly filling up. We will not overpopulate the workout to make sure each athlete gets the proper coaching and attention they need.
