Buddy Mercado

Buddy is one of the best baseball minds in the state. His teaching skills and ability to communicate with players of all levels are second to none. He coached at the University of North Alabama and Vanderbilt University before his professional career. His player development and scouting organizations include the Royals, Indians, Cubs, and was instrumental in the forming of the Arizona Diamondbacks. Coach Mercado sets a standard of excellence for players. He then coaches and guides them to hold that standard. His signature program the .400 club is used by high school, college, and MLB hitters today.
