Free Hands

Yeah I don't know. I will let @Work=wins explain himself because I may have botched what he was saying but to me Sanchez just looks rushed compared to Posey from a purely qualitative, what my eye sees, perspective

I am pretty good at looking at rushed swings..I got a youtube channel full of them.

My swing progression from the big muscles do all the work to the hands control the swing.

Haley’s HLP lesson with Richard

Nothing personal, but for the love of God, I will never understand the reasoning behind a one legged swing. I will never get the logic of hitting off one leg when you have 2 legs. I will never understand being unbalanced when you could be balanced. In almost all other athletics/ sports athletes...

thanks Shawn. but none of these are close to a match to mlb guys. I think my student is more of a match. so I guess I know which way to go when trying to duplicate the best. As far as the hands being in control.. LOL is that what you’re after? Bc that’s WHAT IVE BEEN SAYING FOR 5 YEARS !!

exactly. Get the slack out early. So one can plane early. So one can launch early orrr later. Can’t load late and adjust to early right? It’s that simple. but I think Sanchez load hurts him. He’s on top of his leg and the upper gets loaded late every time. His hands can’t whip on time etc etc. he’s one pitch at a time. whatever he’s looking and gets can be an adventure. you can run into some balls. But adjustability suffers.


I think it’s a fine and delicate line. I think you can cover 2/3 of the plate at once. but full plate coverage on any given pitch is a fantasy at the upper levels Imo.

What is your benchmark or reference for know if the hands load late?

the front shoulder going down and in or counter rotating at the forward move. For me personally if the hands gather the swing it’s an automatic. as long as there isn’t a sway over the back leg.

I haven’t studied his swing. I have seen it and didn’t care for it.

Rich helped him get his big contract which worked until pitchers found the holes and umpires started calling the whole strike zone.
