Whit Merrifield talking through how you CANNOT try and take your "A swing" on every swing. You CANNOT try and swing as hard as you can every swing. This doesn't help in game hitting. Max out power swings leads to inconsistent results in the game period.

@Nelson_Hitting Yes. Weird edit of how they show him getting off his A swing on every clip tho 🤣

There’s a lot of A swings on the bench

Amen!!!!

Where do I hear the rest of the interview?

That’s whole clip MLB posted

your ‘A swing’ shouldn’t be you swinging as hard as you can, though.

None of this matters but, I like it when… 1. Around the horn is 2-5-6-4–5-1 2. The umpire is referred to by his first name. 3. Base coaches jog to their positions. 4. Catchers call their own pitches. 5. Parents cheer for other kids!

Every game of catch is an opportunity to improve or form bad habits. It’s so easy to invite bad habits while playing a lazy game of catch with nonchalant intent and mechanics. If you want better efficiency, velocity and consistency, take catch seriously.

🚨 Bryce Harper : Dealing w/ Nerves • Appreciate the opportunity to be in the spotlight - you’ve earned it. • By being thankful for the moment you will enjoy it more & play looser. ⭐️ Remind yourself daily that this is a game & it’s supposed to be fun.
