Speaking of high knee lifts, what do you think of this swing?

I think your wrong , it's a BP swing and a very good one. The only youth eite swing I've ever seen posted.

Wish I had some of DD in the cage last week. She was lifting and getting coiled at the same time.

Im all for leg lift. Knee lift. What ever. But the swing above is just a lift. No added load. IMO.

You asked about this batter in particular, right?

Do you believe that a BP swing should be different from a game swing? From what you wrote here I feel that you may believe that the stress of hitting in a game will change the mechanics of a hitter? IMO the young man doesn't illustrate elite level mechanics and suffers from some of the same issues seen from hitters posted on this board.


Edit: What do you see in this hitter that makes him elite?
