Catcher’s Weighted Wrist Drill with Miguel Mercado – Langham Creek High School (TX)

August 12, 2025 • By Baseball Coaches Insider

Catchers can become pocket-dependent, and the wrist can collapse, forcing the catcher to try to bring the ball back. The wrist weight helps eliminate the catcher being pocket-dependent. Once the weight is off, the process becomes more natural for the catcher.
