For example, if you are using an end loaded bat because you’re a “power hitter”…you’re likely leaving a lot of performance on the table!

Spent time at a D1 school known for their hitting. Did some ‘speed’ fittings. Moved a 6’4” power hitter from an end loaded 34.5 to a balanced 33.5. Moved a speedy 5’9” guy from a 32” bat to a 34” bat. Absolute tanks followed. Don’t pigeon hole players into bat profiles

One of these players' swing is up the middle. The other player swings substantially toward the opposite field. Which is which?

Btw: both players have a +11 degree AoA (they swing up 11 degrees). So far in 2025: Player A is batting .263 with an average bat speed of 73.4 (71st percentile in MLB) Player B is batting .307 with an average bat speed of 69.5 (16th percentile in MLB) 'But muh bat speed'
