What are your thoughts on this...are they a valuable tool? What do you put in yours if you keep one?
I've found this to be a very valuable tool. However, to make it valuable you need to:
  • Make notes after every game, or series of games if you're doing rec ball
  • Leave time to review your notes before your next game.
If you'll do that, it'll become a great tool to help you progress. But if you leave out either step, it will be far less valuable to you.
