My guest today on the podcast is Sean McGrath, who recently joined the University of Iowa baseball program as pitching coach and player development analyst.  I have known Sean for nearly 10 years, and I can say that he is as forward thinking a coach as there is.  He is a student of the game, who is always looking to expand his knowledge and grow as a person and a coach.

Prior to Iowa, he was the pitching coach for the Seattle Mariners Double-A affiliate the Arkansas Travelers, where his staff put together the 2nd highest ERA in the Texas League of 4.27. While with the Mariners, he was previously the pitching coach for the High-A Everett AquaSox and the Single-A Modesto Nuts.  Prior to the Mariners, Sean was a college pitching coach at Elon University and UMass-Lowell. 

Sean is a graduate of Lafayette College (2012) with a bachelor’s degree in government & law, where he played four years of varsity baseball.

In today’s podcast we discuss variety of topics, including:

• Getting freshman up & running in regard to higher workloads
• Some non-negotiables for a college ball player looking to get drafted
• One of my biggest steals I stole from Sean to improve transfer to the mound

At the end of the day, psychological integration is not salvation. And I think that most people who have done the work will be ready enough to concede that. This is not the end of the road, it’s not salvation. What do we want? We don’t want just integrated individuals, but we want a redeemed order of being, we want justice on earth.

MLast, but not least, McGrath helps us to connect how inner work and individuation link to the actions in the outer world: how by laying down your life for your community you might find the inner peace that you seek.
