Two birds killed with one swing
Seriously though.. are their any certainties in a baseball swing?

Thanks W,his bar is more after he sees pitch and commits. Griff jr was a bit earlier. Knob to catcher.

If we took the uniform off this guy and said he was a HS player all the gurus would have a lot of criticism. His swing is really pretty simple. gets on plane early, quiet eyes/head, uses both legsAnd then along came this guy

Precisely....and because the things you mentioned above it should be one of the easier swings to duplicateIf we took the uniform off this guy and said he was a HS player all the gurus would have a lot of criticism.

Thanks W,
IMO When speaking of arm bar.. nobody is saying that it's a problem if a hitter arm bars during the stretch.. it's after launch that is continuously debated.
EFB already pointed this out (Knob to the catcher).. I'm posting a very good hitter which does not. More than one way to get it done.. and if a lot of instructors seen a kid walk in the door with Acuna's mechanics, regardless of results, first thing they would say is "knob to catcher".. and that's unfortunate
Does Acuna always arm bar? I doubt itHaving an armbar and still staying inside the ball is very difficult (Acuna had 188 Ks) and requires great timing and a little guessing but can be very effective. I have tried to hit the ball with an armbar. I can't do it.
