DD has some issues. Some things I see consistently in her swing, especially in games: weak load, starting swing before foot landing, and something with her hands that I can’t put my finger on. Her arms are nearly straight before the barrel connects with the ball and her hip is already rotated, so she always hits weakly.
Diagnosing hitting flaws please and how to fix

The hands are sliding forward, with the barrel. She needs to TTB and work on creating a rotational point with the hands.
Her hand move to much. She is not way off. Justin Stone drill for her. She is launching well before her front foot is down.
"I can’t put my finger on "
Put your finger on the red line. That's the cause of most of her troubles. The rear forearm should be green/flat/level at toe touch.
De Jong hitting a homer...immediately prior to toe touch and right after toe touch. Note the forearm position.
