À propos de cet audio

Derrick Eddington’s journey doesn’t look like the typical prospect story — and that’s exactly why it matters. In this episode of Up & In, host Anthony Ranaudo sits down with Derrick Eddington, a Tampa Bay Rays pitching prospect from Michigan’s Upper Peninsula (“Yooper” roots), to unpack the long road: small-town life, family and brotherhood, injuries and setbacks, indie ball grind, and the turning points that helped him unlock elite velocity — all the way up to touching 100 MPH and earning his shot in affiliated baseball. They talk: Growing up in the UP (and the perspective it builds) Being a basketball-first athlete + a brutal wrist injury JUCO to D2, shoulder surgery, and rebuilding from scratch The indie ball ladder (USPBL / Frontier League) and getting noticed The moment the radar flashed 100 What “pro” really means: daily intention, routines, and recovery The mindset shift Derrick wants this year: consistency + moving on fast after a bad outing If you’re a player, parent, coach, or fan who loves the behind-the-scenes reality of development — this one’s for you.
