Dante talking - Loft, His approach & 2 strike hitting. Upon the hundreds of hours of these talks over the last 5+ years, this 2 mins and 30 seconds of simplicity, is probably the most difficult for a hitter to buy into. When to play out front and when not too!

“Let it get deep. Don’t get beat.”

A phrase that gets misunderstood a lot.

It doesn’t mean let every pitch get deep.

It means allow the ball to come to you enough that you don’t rush out front and give the pitcher exactly what they want—a weak rollover, pull-side ground ball, or early commitment.

⚾ Let it get deep = a thought that helps you stay patient and avoid chasing.

⚾ Don’t get beat = don’t let it get so deep that you’re late.

The best hitters live in that window between too early and too late.

Not rushing.

Not waiting.

Just seeing it longer and making better decisions.

Let it get deep. Don’t get beat.
That’s the balance. 🎯

My best quote ever to a hitter
“It took god 7 days to create the universe, and you think I can fix your swing in an hour?” 😂😂

I’ve been asked a ton lately about my tagline I’ve been using for about 6 months now. Welp. Me and the boys came up with some good ones .

Yo X. Looking for a couple hack juniors and team feeders if anyone has a link to them.

🚨 “I just got another notification…” 🚨

Another review came through on my remote hitting app on Coachly.

So I clicked it…

…and just kept scrolling and scrolling and scrolling through all the feedback from hitters, parents, and players I’ve worked with over the past couple years.

Honestly, pretty cool to look back on.

I just want to say THANK YOU to everybody who’s supported my content, trusted me with your swing, shared videos, sent messages, and helped build this online community.

Don’t take my word for it.

Go check out my reviews on Coachly/StanceDoctor yourself.

Maybe I can help you too.

Trying to fix 2 things at once usually fixes none of them.”

If you have:
⚾ a foot issue
⚾ a hand issue
⚾ a turn/torque issue

Don’t try fixing multiple things at the same time.

Pick ONE.
Focus on it.
Own it.
Then shift to the next.

Over time, those separate focuses start blending into ONE athletic move.

Trying to consciously think about everything at once usually creates:
❌ hesitation
❌ overthinking
❌ inconsistency

One focus at a time.

That’s how changes actually stick.

Train with an expert, not an influencer.

[Stance Doctor @StanceDoctor]

As a hitter, especially a professional hitter. If you don’t take pride in better swing decisions, better contact and less strikeouts, what are you even doing ??

[Stance Doctor @StanceDoctor]

@flowsdoc Can a focus on a swing mechanic (part of the swing) also help clean up some of the things you mentioned? I’m trying to figure out when it’s a movement or mechanic that should be the focus. Thanks

@richiemille The UNC’s gonna turn this to a whole other level.

🤯 Hitters… it’s simple:
If you can’t consistently hit ONE speed in different locations…

How do you expect to hit DIFFERENT speeds in different locations?

Seems obvious… but most hitters skip that part.

Master the simple first.
Then build adjustability.

Train with an expert, not an influencer.

I love mixing:
🔥 high-velocity seated overhand throws
with
🐢 slow, loopy underhand spinners

Now the hitter has to:
👉 adjust timing
👉 control tempo
👉 stay athletic
👉 react instead of guess

Too many hitters train one speed…
one rhythm…
one look.

Real hitting isn’t comfortable.

The best hitters learn how to slow down the slow stuff…
WITHOUT speeding up for the hard stuff.

Mixing speeds trains adjustability.
And adjustability is what shows up in games.

Train with an expert, not an influencer.

[Stance Doctor @StanceDoctor]

FASTBALL…CHANGEUP…
RANDOM………..!!!!
When hitters KNOW what’s coming…
most hitters hit it pretty well.
But the second they DON’T know?
👀 Misses show up.
That’s adjustability.
That’s real timing.
That’s real hitting.
Yes…
Train what you’re looking for.
But you better train what you’re NOT looking for too.
Because the game doesn’t always give you your pitch.
Train with an expert, not an influencer.

Colby Shelton entered the year unranked.

Now?

He’s on the cusp of the White Sox top 10.

Shelton is one of the big risers in our new Top 30 Prospects update for every team.

Young hitters especially need to hear this…
One of the hardest things to control in hitting is the temptation to TRY and hit a home run.
Dante Bichette was talking to a professional hitter about it:
👉 Home runs are thrown… not hit.
👉 The goal is getting THROUGH the ball.
👉 On path. Through direction. Through contact.
The second hitters start trying to “go yard”…
most pull off
most get long
most lose adjustability
Control the temptation…
and you’ll control your destiny as a hitter.
The best power usually comes from clean direction — not forcing damage.
Train with an expert, not an influencer.

@upperclasssports said his tee couldn’t hold a basketball…. Well Coach, let me send you a HandyTee 😂

🏀 Basketball🏈 Football⚾ Weighted baseballs🥎 Weighted softball🎾 1 lb plyo ball💥 2 lb ball

All held. All usable.

The point of HandyTee was NEVER just “hold a baseball or softball.”

It’s about:👉 faster setup👉 more variation👉 more realistic training👉 more reps without stopping to move a heavy tee every swing

The Tee That Doesn’t TIP. 😎
