Brad Hawpe had a sweet swing from the left side.

But that was many moons ago.

Schimpf had such a compact swing.

I don't think Duplantis has that sweet a swing. Loads up too early. All back then forward and sacrifices power by doing so and mostly slaps and pokes the ball. He is a good college hitter for sure but I don't think his swing is sweet.

Todd Walker
Blake Dean
Albert Belle
Justin Bowles

Those guys come to mind.

Another example of someone living in the moment. Everybody who plays now is GOAT. Also he slaps at the ball more than anything.

Schimpf is possibly smoothest swing
Dean
Clark
Walker
Hawpe-
