Dugout Dish: In the Clubhouse with EMD | 2026 Commit - Game plan for this year

In this episode, we break down exactly what 2026 graduates committed to play college baseball should be doing before arriving on campus this fall. If you're a future freshman preparing for Division I, II, III, or JUCO baseball, this episode outlines a plan for the summer.   We cover a detailed roadmap for pitchers, including innings management, pitch counts, summer ball decisions, strength and conditioning priorities, arm care routines, and how to communicate effectively with your college pitching coach.   For position players, we discuss how to structure summer competition, maximize quality at-bats, improve defensive consistency, build strength in the weight room, and maintain overall health leading into fall baseball.   We also emphasize the importance of consistent communication with your future college coaching staff, setting performance expectations, and preparing physically and mentally so you can show up to campus ready to compete from day one.   If you're a 2026 commit looking to make an immediate impact in fall baseball, this episode gives you a complete summer preparation blueprint.
