Main Takeaways:
- Bullpen sessions are only as good as the pitcher’s effort and intent during them.
- Have a plan: Whether you are with a coach or not, having a plan for what you want to accomplish during a bullpen session will help avoid a lot of wasted effort.
- Stay focused: Work on being mentally strong, keeping your focus like it’s a game situation.
- It’s easy to not always be 100 percent focused—and remember: FUN—so keep in mind that less is more when it comes to bullpen session: 50 pitches that have a purpose—100 percent focus and intent—is better than 100 pitches without any focus or plan for improvement.
