Currently, reminds me of squash to bug with back foot, drive forward. Hits into firm front leg. Develop upright posture at point of contact. Presently, shoulders lean forward slightly. Barrel/hands in good launch position. Cast hands out slightly creating length, causing lead shoulder to open early. Work to take hands on direct path to baseball, barrel will follow.

Hit: RHH. Lands in good position to hit after stride. Rotational back foot, work to drive foot forward looking to drive hip/lower 1/2 into firm front side. Presently, back foot has squash the bug move. Barrel/hands in good launch position. Takes solid path to hit zone with knob/hands, work to keep top hand above bottom in swing. Firm ability to stay thru baseball with barrel after contact, cuts off swing slightly now. 68 mph bat speed with 8 G's of rotational acceleration.

Body: 6-1, 184-pounds. Good build/frame. Avg width to shoulders and back. Frame supports added strength in the future with maturity. Good physical projections.
Hit: RHH. Slightly open stance, lands with short stride, in good position. Rotational back foot works fine. Hits into firm front side, rolls over on stride foot with swing causing loss of balance and killing lower 1/2 use. Work to keep stride foot into ground thru swing. Firm getting back foot fully rotated and driving back hip forward and body into firm front side. Hands/barrel start initially in solid position. With stride hands cock creating barrel tip over head with high back elbow creating length to swing. Recommend working to get barrel closer to back of head along with softening back elbow resulting in shorter and more direct path to baseball. Cuts swing off, work to stay thru baseball.
