This is why I truly value listening to Tyler talk about hitting and I value the times I’ve gotten to sit there and watch him teach. Listen and learn. My thoughts are very similar to this with the guys I work with. Every hitter is different. There are basics and then there are specifics to each player. This is a great thought process.

Hot take that shouldn't be a hot take: there's a down part of the swing and an up part of the swing.

The barrel has to work down to get on plane, then release out at a positive angle. Ideally that upward path matches the pitch. If the pitch is coming in at -5 degrees, a +5 degree attack angle gives us the best chance at success. (No these aren’t perfect numbers I’m just throwing some numbers out.)

I feel like all the arguments are over the wrong things. We should be worried about how to get our players to actually do this, not who's right and who's wrong.

Would love to hear others' thoughts on this. #hittingtalk
