What I noticed about Khris was the elbow but even more the hands. So calm and relaxed pre load, then explosive to contact. Sets you apart from the great hitters
Khris Davis is the most underrated player in baseball. he doesn't get much attention because he isnt on the Yankees, Red Sox, or Cubs, the three teams MLB highly favors
I used to do that and that's why I had power to all sides of the field but then I thought I was wrong and I started developing bad habits and then I had a few seasons where I had to rework my swing cause I couldn't find my old good swing but then I saw this video and now I remember what I used to do, thanks for the vid guys
Thats what I was taught as a kid. I legit watched this video and then grabbed a bat and did my swing in front of a mirror, and realized, tho I was strong, reasons I was never a HR hitter, was cuz my swing was too steep with the knob. God I wish I had this video when I was 10 yr old, 13 years ago. I would've worked on using my back and elbow to help my hip snap, to generate more power.
Even in his best years, his bat contributions were wiped out by bad defense or not playing DH at a high enough level (he best years in OAK were a combined 120 OPS+).
Sean Casey, can you please teach this technique to my home team the Minnesota Twins. your demonstration shows me that the entire team is casting/entering in steep and not utilizing the entire zone with the bat path.
OMG. These guys are finally catching on. Listen to everything they're saying here. They're getting most of it right. Hands rock back n forth to create a non-static stretched "back wing". Buggy whipping. Plus hands come freely through first while inside as they demonstrate. Arms locked cause that bad casting out they also mention. BUT THEY'RE STILL BLIND TO THE BOTTOM FRONT LEG STARTING THE ENTIRE RHYTHM OR KINETIC CHAIN. ALL 4-5 BATTERS IN A ROW DID IT FROM THAT PERFECT FRONTAL VIEW: USE THE LOWER FRONT LEG TO BUGGY WHIP THE ENTIRE BODY N BAT INTO A SWING. DO NOT TOE TAP AND STOP!
Glad people finally talking about him.
I love this channel. So much knowledge on fundamentals, mechanics and the game.
Jason Davis not really a channel. It’s really a tv channel
DeRosa is not very good IMHO.
Sean Casey needs to limit his Red Bull intake to 2 cans a day, down from 10.
Lol needs to switch to decaf
Boom. Right there. Boom.
Lol you gotta love the passion though
1 tee 2 tee 3 tee 4 TEE RIGHT HERE
another great teaching lesson. i wish i had these videos available when i was still playing
I'm glad that people are talking about my cousin appreciate it!!
Hows he doing?
Man, this is a great video. Love the visual from above. Go A's!

Don’t forget the dodgers
Even Astros
I mean Matt Chapman in the A’s and he’s perfectly rated
East coast bias blows chunks.
Love Sean Casey, such good insight
My man Khrush. Been a God send for the A's.
Khris Davis May Be Small But Don't Let His Stature Fool You He Can Hammer The Ball
people forget about this man
Matthew C I can't forget my cousin

One of if not the best hitting video I've ever watched
People are finally starting to understand knob of the bat to the ball isn't the game

"and my barrel, WHAM, look at that, comes in the zone there, BOOM, and look at that ride -- and THAT, is what the great hitters do right there.
Noah McDaniel all about the WHAM BOOM. I have been doing BOOM WHAM and cant hit shit!
HEY!! Great stuff, thank you for helping me conformed that what I’m teach is right.
My favorite video to watch
Amazing stuff! Love the channel!
Wow, this is an excellent analysis.
42, 43, 48. Will Khris get 62 in 2019??
Great hitting breakdown. Gonna show this to my theoretical future children.
Do a segment on how Heyward can't stop casting.
If you look at the old school hitters their bat was almost parallel to the ground while still behind them and at the start of the forward swing.
Even in his best years, his bat contributions were wiped out by bad defense or not playing DH at a high enough level (he best years in OAK were a combined 120 OPS+).
Like Tony Gwynn said “knob to the ball” hit to every field.
“Don’t push a bat, swing the knob”

fun fact, khris davis dad is the head coach at cerritos college now
Sean Casey, can you please teach this technique to my home team the Minnesota Twins.

Greg amsinger is the man. So proud to say he is from st Louis
He should be in the HR derby
he received an invite but declined

Keeping the back arm bent is the key.
Why is Sean Casey always yelling?
ok so back in the day they use to say this swing is too long
and then he slumped
that's, not a lota real estate
hard to listen to sean casey talk. Sammy sprinkler.
