The day that WPW visited Astros camp, I had no idea what to expect from Carlos Gomez. The perennial odds-on-favorite to lead the league in “Brawls Started” may strike you as a tough guy, but when it comes to his “baby,” he’s quite the opposite. “I take care of my […]

When AL MVP Josh Donaldson isn’t bringing rain, he’s snatching would-be-doubles out of the sky at third base. As one of the best third basemen ON THE PLANET, we really enjoyed picking his brain on his gear and strategies, and JD was happy to talk about it. The biggest thing I […]
Russell Martin took a little time away from the Spring grind to chat with WPW about his gear choices, including his Rawlings glove and chest protector. We don’t want to bombard you with Blue Jays, but we had gotten several requests for a catcher, and Martin was the only catcher […]
Troy Tulowitzki (ever heard of him) sat down for a few minutes with WPW to talk about the finer details of fielding, including his glove, the TT2, his strategy as a fielder, and off-field style among other things. If this video doesn’t compel you to subscribe to us on Youtube, […]
Curtis Granderson checks in with WPW about his new gamer for this year. He talks about how he’s getting it ready for Opening Day 2016, and why he chose an H-Web over a Trap-eze. We also touch on the off-field style in the Metropolitan clubhouse. Here’s a few more looks at […]

Starting Pitcher Lucas Giolito, Nats #1 prospect, chats with me about his glove, and a little bit about off-field style. He’s a great guy, and his curveball is “bowel-locking.” Follow him on IG @lgio27. Here’s the piece:
Gearing up for spring training (we’re headed to Florida next week), but I wanted to share our next video with you guys. We’re going to call this one “What’s in the Bag” and its pretty self-explanatory. What do you keep in your baseball bag? First up is our boy Josh […]
God’s honest truth, I have never even considered buying a turf shoe. They’re real fancy and all, but I have shoes that serve the same purpose, they just aren’t called turfs. The Trout 2s have changed that for me. I want the Trout 2s to be my shoes, like for […]
We showed you the top bats swung in the MLB last week, and now its time for the gloves. In this report, we tallied the glove choice of every single MLB starter, not just the players we’ve profiled on What Pros Wear. To be clear, that is Baseball Reference‘s primary […]
