omg look at that bat extension holy crap thats amazing his bat is almost touching the ground after every swing i bet that gives him a whole lot more power....W00W
Such a crisp and efficient swing... definitely inspiring. I recently adjusted my swing to reflect his, especially with how he steps back and almost into place (for better balance) and his more 'golf' grip that he (and most people use), definitely helps with the bat placement and adjustment.
josh hamilton is one of the best players in the mlb today, so why are you coming on here to badmouth him, he is in the mlb and your probley some fatty that has never swung a bat. well if you did it was probley little league and the coach had to put you in for your 3 innings, so fuck off, your the one watching him hit on youtube and saying he cant hit
He struggled in the middle of the season because he changs his machanics from 08 to 09, then he went back to his toe-tap and got better results and started hitting like the 08 hamilton, which shows there are different mechanics for different people
Nah, I'm straighter than you and your man crush on Josh Hamilton. Hows your boytoy doing this year? Pretty shitty, lol. He's a one year wonder, flash in the pan. He should stick to hard drugs, it's what he knows best.
Your coaches are right, you should throw your hands at the ball to keep a level swing, if you throw your whole body at it you will mess up your timing, your legs are where 90% of the power comes from.
Yes, there's a lot more then merely throwing his hands at the ball. However, very solid fundamentally overall. But, if you want the perfect swing go check out some of Griffey's latest from Peoria. Now that's beauty.
Once in a generation player.

The Toe tap is overrated. It's all about starting 50-50, going to 100-0 and finishing 50-50. small stride, no stride, or reverse stride.

airplouffe86 2 years ago
He has a rotational swing...He still keeps his hands inside the baseball and drives through it he just uses more hips and legs and not brute strength

His mechanics are far from perfect. He's just so dang blessed with talent it isn't even funny. Great work ethic and an awesome attitude!
Can't wait to see him hit in the 1.5 billion dollar debacle!
