As a baseball scout, there are two concerning hitting characteristics with HS & College hitters that stand out more today than ever before.

1) No Plan At The Plate

Successful hitters don’t just hope to get a hit—they know what pitch they’re hunting, they exercise zone awareness, they know what part of the field they’re trying to use, they know how to work counts, and how they’re going to attack pitch to pitch. They have a plan, they don’t just “wing it.”
If you fail to plan—then plan to fail.

2) Lack Of Competing In The Box

Every pitch is a battle. Fighting off tough pitches. Refusing to get beat. Making the pitcher earn every out. Competing in the box isn’t about the “result”—a hitter can go 0-4, but have four quality at bats. Competing in the box is about your approach, focus, and effort every single pitch.

Yes, swing operation and talent matters, however a “plan” and a “competitive” mindset in the box separate good hitters from the rest.

Never forget . .

Success is never owned. It is only rented, and the rent is due everyday!

@13yearpro Add some fire shooting out of Erceg's right hand and I'll agree!

[Danny Penn @Danny_Penn2]

@anne__rogers @RoyalsData I doubt you’re able to answer, but any thought to the idea that Q knew he was not ready, but JJ and front office told him to use him?

[Danny Penn @Danny_Penn2]

@FlannyMLB Estevez to IL; Avila/Cruz up.

[Danny Penn @Danny_Penn2]

@DBLesky Which is it? Bonkers to hate the move and put it on Q? Or on Estevez?

@SSJWHB What a surprise.

[Danny Penn @Danny_Penn2]

@pgrathoff No, it was Quatraro putting Estevez on the mound after looking like crap all spring.

[Danny Penn @Danny_Penn2]

@jaylonthompson @anne__rogers
Please do NOT let Matt Quatraro off the hook tonight. Make him answer ALL the questions.
