re: Paxton Kling’s batting stance

He could try at least closing his stance off with his stride. He starts open and strides open, which means his front hip opens up early, putting his alignment and hands across the zone. His bat doesn’t stay in the zone very long so he can only handle very few pitch locations. He swings over the top of balls down and in, he pulls anything outside which causes weak contact. SEC pitchers can locate better and exploit those weaknesses.
