⚾️ Parents and pitchers — I’m offering private pitching lessons at Slammers Training Academy!

My time at Valparaiso and with the Chicago Dogs has taught me a lot about the preparation, consistency, and confidence it takes to compete. I’m excited to share that experience with the next generation of pitchers.

Each lesson will focus on understanding your delivery, building repeatable mechanics, and throwing with better command and purpose. Whether you’re learning the fundamentals or preparing for your next season, we’ll work toward your goals together.

⚾️ Chicago-area pitchers and parents—let’s make every session count.

I’m bringing my experience with the Miami Marlins, Chicago Dogs, and Bravos de León into private pitching lessons at Slammers Training Academy.

My goal is to help youth and high school pitchers understand their delivery, throw with more consistent command, and build confidence on the mound—with instruction focused on each athlete’s needs.

Whether your pitcher is learning the fundamentals or preparing for high school competition, let’s build a plan for their development.

Up to 86 this fall, and the testing shows why. 📈

Elliot Knapper (@elliotknapper42) (RHP, Uncommitted, 2028) finished his fall with 14 innings, 18 strikeouts and just 4 runs allowed.

The work behind it showed up on assessment day back in August compared to where he was back in February.

• Single-leg lateral jump (L): 80” to 86”
• Single-leg lateral jump (R): 82” to 88”
• Broad jump: 101” to 108”
• 10-yard sprint: 1.80s to 1.64s

More power, more speed, more velo. As a 2028, he has plenty of time to keep climbing and looks to take another jump this off-szn.
