Bat speed training plays. Max Marquez @MaxMarquez_2_ came to Driveline’s AZ facility with a top end exit velocity of about 87mph. The two months of work he’s put in has made him a much more dangerous hitter. Here he is PR’ing off of a live arm - 100mph at 9 degrees 👀👀
Will bat speed training mess up your swing? @Tstokey is here to fill you in.

Bat speed buys you a margin of error in contact quality You see No matter what you do as a hitter you will NEVER square up every pitch It will never happen Sometimes the pitcher will throw you a slider down the middle, you'll be early because you were looking for a heater...
Pro baseball players would throw plyos in the stadium bathrooms and hide plyos in bushes. People have no idea what it used to look like.
People also forget weighted balls and plyo balls were evil. (Including me :0 ) Any ways I remember coaches telling us not to do them and hearing about how some organizations banded them
