Optimizing Performance Through Swing Metrics | R&D Podcast Ep 107
Description
In this episode, Jack, Marek and guest Director of Hitting Tanner Stokey break down how new hitting metrics from Baseball Savant are reshaping the way we evaluate and train hitters. They explore key concepts like vertical and horizontal attack angles, depth of contact, and bat path—and explain why context is critical when interpreting these numbers. Using case studies of hitters like Juan Soto, Vladimir Guerrero Jr., and Ronald Acuña Jr., they highlight how swing decisions, biomechanics, and ball flight data can be used to optimize performance at the plate.
