My name is Chase Simpson, and baseball has shaped nearly every chapter of my life.

I played varsity baseball at Flower Mound High School before continuing my career at Weatherford College in 2011. In 2012, I earned a walk-on opportunity at the University of Oklahoma, where I became the first bat off the bench. After transferring to Wichita State, I redshirted in 2013 and earned a starting role in 2014 before being selected by the Pittsburgh Pirates in the 14th round of the MLB Draft.

Over the next nine years, I played professional baseball across affiliated baseball through Double-A, independent professional baseball, and the Mexican Winter League. I also spent two summers competing in the Northwoods League, one of the premier collegiate summer leagues in the country.

While I am grateful for the baseball accomplishments and opportunities, the most valuable lessons I learned came away from the field.

Throughout high school, college, and the early years of my professional career, my off-field habits were inconsistent and often worked against my goals. My nutrition was poor. My sleep habits lacked discipline. I relied on excessive caffeine, used dipping tobacco, drank alcohol, and struggled to maintain consistency in the weight room. As a result, my performance often reflected those habits. I would experience great stretches of success followed by frustrating periods of inconsistency.

Over time, I began to realize that talent was only part of the equation.

As I matured, I started taking ownership of the habits that truly impact performance. I became intentional about my sleep, recovery, nutrition, training, routines, mindset, and daily discipline. The result wasn't just better performance—it was greater consistency, confidence, and peace of mind. I learned that the athletes who maximize their potential are rarely the most talented. They're often the ones who consistently do the small things right.

That realization is what led me to create Christian Baseball Lifestyle.

My mission is simple: help young athletes learn these lessons sooner than I did.

I work with players and families to build the habits, routines, discipline, and mindset necessary to thrive both on and off the field. Baseball is a game full of failure, adversity, pressure, and uncertainty. Too many athletes get trapped in the emotional roller coaster that comes with the game because nobody teaches them how to build a lifestyle that supports consistent performance.

My goal is not to create better baseball players.

My goal is to help develop disciplined young men who happen to become better baseball players as a result.

The habits that lead to success in baseball are the same habits that lead to success in life. If I can help athletes establish those habits years earlier than I did, then I've accomplished what I set out to do.
