MISSION STATEMENT
My mission is to guide local athletes on a clear, honest, and achievable path to college baseball and the next level of their playing careers. Drawing from my 11 years of professional baseball experience and a lifetime spent learning the game, I aim to give back to my community by sharing the knowledge, discipline, and expectations required to succeed. Through personalized evaluations, realistic guidance, and the resources and connections I’ve built throughout my journey, I am committed to helping athletes understand what it truly takes and supporting them every step of the way as they work toward their goals.
TRAVIS BLANKENHORN
Travis Blankenhorn is an American former professional baseball second baseman who played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Minnesota Twins, New York Mets, and Washington Nationals.
With 11 years of experience in the professional baseball world, Travis has seen firsthand what it truly takes to succeed: the discipline, preparation, mindset, and daily standards that separate players who dream from players who actually make it.
Baseball has given him incredible opportunities, and now he’s focused on giving back. Through TB13 Consulting, Travis is committed to helping local athletes build real foundations, avoid common mistakes, and create the best possible path toward college baseball and beyond.
His goal is simple: use his knowledge, experience, and connections to open doors — and help young players be ready when those doors open.

Overview
● You build a ballplayer long before you ever build a swing or a delivery.
● Too many kids chase mechanics but skip the habits, standards, and mindset that actually create greatness.
● Everyone wants the spotlight and to have the viral moment, but hardly anyone wants to invest in the foundation and daily work it takes to truly become a ballplayer.
● Coaches don’t recruit hype, they recruit consistency. They’re watching how you show up every day, how you carry yourself, and the habits you’ve built that reveal who you really are as a player.
● Talent might open the door, but discipline and a strong foundation are what keep that door open and what allow you to walk through it and stay there.
● Most players DO train hard but they train blind. No plan, no timeline, no routine. Just showing up to the gym and lifting without purpose, hoping effort alone will get them where they want to go.
● These are the exact topics we’ll dive into with TB13 Consulting. Building a real plan with no fluff, focused on creating a strong foundation for our young athletes and setting them up for long-term success.
● We will create a clear, step-by-step roadmap designed to guide you from where you are now to reaching your college baseball goals.
● We prioritize honesty and realism, even when it’s tough to hear. To effectively leverage my connections with college coaches, we must set goals that match your true skill level and potential, ensuring the best opportunities for success.
