@DraftProspectus @qualityatbats No. Way easier to put a good swing on pitches up or down. Pitches low and away even a few inches off the plate? No chance

@qualityatbats I don’t see it. But I am not a Hitter. I don’t want a high strike or low strike. Is it not easier to adjust to a pitch away to hit it away? Or in to get my path inside the ball? In and out is regular path? High or low changes path? Pitch below numbers and mid thigh? Cont

I have zero problem with an umpire calling a pitch high or low for a strike from the chest to the knee caps-I have big problems when they call a pitch for a strike 2-3 inches inside or 2-3 inches outside-I can hit a high pitch or low pitch-3 inches outside is IMPOSSIBLE

For all you MLB fans out there panicking over your teams W-L record.
This point in the season is the equivalent of being in the 2nd quarter of game 2 of an NFL season.
Settle down.

This is why we focus SO much of our time on young players posture. It’s absolutely critical to maintain your forward and side bend angles throughout the swing!

Thanks to @MLBNetwork @RipkenBaseball for adding the breakdown of @rhyshoskins to the extended version of the MLB coaches #SpringTraining visits special. Its an honor to be a part of this @Phillies squad and work with this special group of hitters everyday #ShoulderToShoulder

Take the hands out of the swing

The anti rollover swing. Mookie’s left elbow stays up well after impact, holding off the rotation of the forearms. This keeps the bat head on its ascending arc longer. When the lead elbow folds down before contact, the hitter will tend to cut the ball. Great drill feel.

@TheStow_GoesOn He might end up being a decent player some day

@HyattCraig No way he keeps that fair if he has any type of shoulders in his swing.

I try to watch the entire AB as much as possible to see how a hitter got to his HR. This Goldschmidt AB is pretty awesome. This HR is way more impressive after watching the 4 he fouled off and the adjustment he made. 10 pitch AB. HR (1) 93.1 mph in.

If your coach is telling you to not drop your back shoulder, “stand tall” or to “stay level” please come see us!

Throat surgery was completed yesterday, cancer tumor removed. I just went through the most uncomfortable & painful 24 hrs of my life. But I am alive, recovering and have a very bright future. Thank you all for your love & support!

"I just voted for you." I was just walking into a polling place to check on turnout and was greeted in the parking lot by a smile and that statement. #Jones4Sheriff

Medicine balls are such an underrated tool for baseball! Good stuff right here!

Here’s some of my favorite drills to utilize with my athletes to improve rotational power! - I added some general programming guidelines for each drill shown above to give you guys a better idea of how to use each drill in your training

@SaberCoach Dr. Alan is awesome... I’ve had the chance to meet him for coffee and baseball talk a few times lately as we live near each other.

This is one of the most critical things we work on every day at DST. If your instructor/coach is telling you to hit down and/or work your hands run away fast... and come see us. You’ll learn about getting on plane & how to create margin for error and more power in your swing.

Taking our coaches into the inner details of swing metrics is @T_Garrison11 from @Blast_Bsbl Detailing out what ‘on-plane’ truly means at the plate & how we understand it! #ABCAclinics

This is exactly right! Negative attack angles create pop ups... not positive attack angles....and Launch Angle is only a measurement. Furthermore an attack angle can be measured from -90 degree to +90 degrees.
Ignite Baseball@ignite_baseball
Pop flies are caused by glancing blows, stop saying it’s the “launch angle swing.” Attack angle does not equal attack angle. The path of your swing should be within a few degrees of the path of the pitch. If you swung up at 35 degrees you wouldn’t hit anything.
