On this episode of The Athlete’s Porch, I sit down with Skylar Hales — a professional pitcher in the St. Louis Cardinals organization — to break down what actually separates players as they climb from high school baseball to college baseball to minor league baseball and eventually the MLB. He's from Reno, NV where he attended Reno high school then went on to Santa Clara and was a 5th round draft pick.
Spoiler: It wasn’t talent.
Skylar shares the real behind-the-scenes of player development: the boring daily work, the routines, the discipline, and the mindset it takes to keep getting better — and handle the hard lessons that come with professional baseball.
In this conversation we talk about:
• Loving the grind (before you even know what that means)
• The recruiting process and a Sunday camp that changed everything
• Santa Clara baseball, academics, and balancing an engineering path
• Strength gains, nutrition, recovery, and building a pro body
• What happens when you enter pro ball and try to do too much
• Velocity jumps, mechanical adjustments, and learning what works
• Routine + consistency (and why it matters in the minors and MLB)
• What it takes to reach spring training and be ready for the next level
If you’re a player chasing the next level — recruiting, development, mindset, routine — this episode is for you.
Parents and coaches… same thing. This is the real process.
PTLG.
