Overall Summary

Strengths

Strength 2: Maintains elite head discipline and balance throughout the swing, leading to consistent contact.

Areas For Improvement

Improvement 1: While separation is good, focus on creating a more dynamic ‘stretch’ in the load to unlock additional rotational power.

Improvement 2: Continue to refine hand speed and quickness to the ball to better handle high-velocity pitching.

Recommended Drills

1

Offset Open Stance Drill

Focus

Hip & Torso Separation

Execution

Start in an exaggerated open stance, facing the pitcher. As you stride toward the plate, focus on keeping the upper body coiled back while the hips open. This drill isolates and exaggerates the feeling of separation.

2

Step-Back Drill

Focus

Rhythm and Dynamic Load

Execution

Start with feet together. Step back with your back foot, then immediately stride forward into your swing. This creates momentum and helps develop a more dynamic rhythm and load.

3

Front Toss - Inside/Outside

Focus

Hand Path & Plate Coverage

Execution

Have a partner alternate front tossing pitches on the inside and outside corners. Focus on keeping the hands tight to the body for inside pitches and allowing for extension on outside pitches, all without changing swing plane.
