Overall Summary
Areas For Improvement
Improvement 1: Develop greater hip-shoulder separation (torso separation) in the load to increase stored energy and power.
Improvement 2: Improve swing sequencing by keeping the front shoulder closed longer to prevent ‘spinning out’ and allow the hands to work inside the ball.

Recommended Drills
1
Step-Back Separation Drill
Focus
Hip-Shoulder Separation & SequencingExecution
From your normal stance, take a small step back with your rear foot to feel the hips coiling against your torso. Then, stride forward into a normal swing. This exaggerates the feeling of separation.
2
Opposite Field Focus
Focus
Front Side Control & Staying Through the BallExecution
During tee work or soft toss, make it your goal to hit every ball to the opposite field. This forces you to keep your front shoulder in, let the ball travel deeper, and stay through the baseball, countering the tendency to pull off.
3
Fence Drill
Focus
Keeping Hands Inside the BallExecution
Set up a foot or so away from a fence or net, with your back to it. Take dry swings. If your bat casts out early, you will hit the fence. This drill provides instant feedback, forcing you to maintain a compact swing path.
