This week Andrew talks with New York Mets pitcher Stephen Nogosek. Stephen has had a great start to his 2022 season—but despite his success he has moved back and forth between the Mets and their AAA minor league team in Syracuse. Amidst all of the change and uncertainty, Stephen always looks ready to go when he is on the pitcher’s mound. Stephen talks about his detailed process to continuously grow as a pitcher, how he stays focused during times of uncertainty, and so much more. This conversation is filled with ideas that stretch far beyond baseball and will help you reach your full potential in anything.
