Testimonials

I have an extensive background in baseball along with over 40 years in professional baseball as a player, coach, scout, international scouting director, manager and special assistant to the General Manager. I have known Todd Sullivan for many years and he has proven to be not only a dedicated coach, but more importantly a great teacher of baseball  and at the same time building confidence and self esteem. These are rare qualities as he was also able to have an impact on my son Derrek Lee who had a very successful 15 year major league career. I not only feel that Todd is a qualified pitching coach, but I think he’s especially qualified to work with young men at any level. He has a great passion for the game, and has been an ambassador for the game through having promoted baseball by way of television and radio. Along with myself, there are other ex professional, and current players that truly benifited from Todd’s excellent training ability.

When I was 9 years old, I came to Coach Todd with a pitching arsenal consisting of only a fastball, and a change-up that crossed the plate when I got lucky. Quickly he taught me how to be accurate, and grew my arsenal. I currently have 8 different pitches that coach has taught me, but more importantly his expertise has given me the knowledge to know when, why, and how to use them.

Coach Todd works with me on velocity, accuracy, deception, and mind set. We condition not only physically, but mentally as well. Unlike other coaches I  have had Coach Todd cares about my longevity, and instructs me on how to take care of my baseball body. Coach Todd started as just my pitching coach, but now after 5 years our relationship has evolved, he is my mentor, friend, and I consider him to be part of my family.
