The hardest part about hitting a baseball isn’t mechanics, it’s timing. I say all the time, there are a handful of guys in the big leagues that I consider to have perfect swings. With a perfect swing, you would think a guy would hit .700 or .800. Of course that doesn’t happen, so there has […]

Double Play Runner Simulation Drill
February 14th, 2012 [easy-share buttons="facebook,twitter,linkedin,mail,print" counters=0 native="no"]Simulating the feel of a “game like” double play is difficult in practice. It’s one thing to turn a double play without runners, but another when you have a runner bearing down on top of you. This is especially true for the second baseman as he can feel the runner coming, but can’t see him […]
Elite 15U Players Litter Initial PBR Rankings
February 13th, 2012 [easy-share buttons="facebook,twitter,linkedin,mail,print" counters=0 native="no"]The first class of 2015 rankings recently were released by Sean Duncan and the Prep Baseball Report. Sean does about a good a job as anyone can do with a job as subjective as ranking high school players. I don’t get to concerned about these things, but the kids like the recognition. Many players will […]
Ryan's swing passes more than the "eye test"
February 7th, 2012 [easy-share buttons="facebook,twitter,linkedin,mail,print" counters=0 native="no"]There is certainly more to hitting than just mechanics. No doubt about it.

Negative Move Explanation and Video
February 1st, 2012 [easy-share buttons="facebook,twitter,linkedin,mail,print" counters=0 native="no"]One of the most incorrectly done phases of the swing is the negative move. A very necessary phase of the swing, yes. But it may be the most incorrectly taught phase as well. I see more hitters with synchronization errors because they were taught by a coach how to “load” improperly. See some of the […]
