Built by Ethan O'Neal, solo founder. PlayersLab is the player-development platform for serious baseball athletes — pitchers and hitters alike. Track what actually moves the needle, train with a coach in your pocket, and watch your game trend over time. PICK YOUR PATH Choose pitcher, position player, or two-way at sign-up, and the whole app adapts to you — your training, your metrics, your coaching. FOR PITCHERS • Log velocity and bullpens, import Rapsodo & TrackMan reports, and build your arsenal with movement plots. • Biomechanical Movement Screening and a Mechanics Lab that breaks down your delivery frame by frame. • Arm care, throwing programs, and workload tracking (acute-to-chronic) so you train the trend, not the ego. FOR HITTERS • A Spray Chart batted-ball lab, exit velo and bat speed tracking, and a Swing Lab that reads your sequencing and posture. • Import hitting reports, log cage work, study a stance library, and find your MLB hitter comp. COMPARE AND REVIEW FILM • Put two bullpen or cage clips side by side and play them together in slow motion or frame by frame. • Pull in older videos from your camera roll to compare. • Mark up your own film with drawings and voice, then save the review. • Message your coach privately, one to one. Coaches can compare clips from any player on their roster. MEET COACH CY Your development coach, 24/7. It reads your profile, workload, and recovery and gives specific, personalized answers — hitting-specific for hitters, pitching-specific for pitchers. READINESS & RECOVERY A daily check-in plus your workload and sleep build a readiness score, so you know what your body is ready for today. FOR COACHES & TEAMS Run a roster, monitor each athlete's readiness and workload, and see a team health view — built for academies, travel orgs, and programs.
