First clip is of me catching free agent Jason Shockley at @The_BPCsj Pro Day. Clips 2 and 3 are of me swinging today. The main focus in the cage today was working on my back hip coiling.

@JLucroy20 George Brett type of swing…. Tells you everything.

I’ve watching hundreds, maybe even thousands of hours of elite MLB swings. This video work was done to determine their bat path. Their bat path determined their hard contact zone. As a catcher, my goal was to be above their bat path, or below their bat path. This was accomplished by utilizing velocity, movement, and obviously, location. The disruption of a hitter’s timing creates weak contact or swing and miss. Whenever I saw hitters that had a lengthy (3.5-4ft) of FLAT bat length in the zone, I knew that we would have to be very careful. These types of hitters had much room for error in their swing. They could be late, and line it oppo, or, they could be early on a hanger, and would pull it for damage. The more downward barrel tilt I saw, the more knob up I saw, and more barrel casting toward catcher I saw, it was always a lesser hitter I was watching. Perfect example here of a flat path. High heater, and flush contact. If you see barrel drop or a cast behind on this pitch, it’s a foul ball, swing and miss, or, a pop up on the infield.

Had a good weekend in the Boston Prospect Select Tournament. Batting .333 on the weekend with two clutch triples and 3 stolen bases! @JkroegerJt @A_RamosCatching @VCUBSBRecruit @coach_garz
