re: Lsu Softball analysis per hitter

Thanks for the write up


Two things that stand out to me that hamper LSU hitters before the mechanics step in are

1. There is a MAJOR pitch recognition problem at lsu. This imo is a pretty big problem. Some are guessing half the time at the pitch. You see batters not close to coming in contact with anything. The ball is on the ground and you have hitters swinging at stuff at their heads.

2. Timing the pitchers is a pretty significant problem. Only two players as of now have been able to time pitchers correctly. Everyone essentially always late, which is why you see so many foul balls and a tremendous loss of power. Homeruns and extra base hits are damn near impossible if you can't find a way to time these pitchers


I will say what's common with every hitters is the they are all out on their front foot.

Also I do not know what is exactly relayed to each hitter but essentially everyone tries to dump the barrel out really under the pitches, it's why you see fly outs and pop outs almost all the time


Those aspects handicap hitters before the mechanics step in for most, the flaws in the hitters mechanics take away from their consistency
