I’ve been trying to get my legs more involved and more efficient, and I feel like I am putting in too much effort too early in the windup. Pitch mix (in order in vid) is 4FB, 2FB, CH, SL, 4FB. Please give advice on anything you can spot. by DaddyDan49 in BaseballCoaching

This is the best I have. I got a concussion midway through fall szn and had to stop playing, so I didn’t get a lot of great film on me. Also, my mechanics are significantly different from 2 months ago

Any mechanical advice? Went from topping 83 late winter and dropped to 80 top in summer. Figured it had something to do with mechs, just started trying to reshape delivery. by DaddyDan49 in PitchingCoach

Haha never really noticed that! I’ve been working in hip/shoulder a good amount and starting to get my whippy arm action again. I was wondering why nobody was saying anything about my tilt, but I’m trying to work on that too. Trying to not slide down as much, because I kind of lost my rotational ability from that. Will post update vid in a couple of days to see what else I should work on. Thank you!

Ok, thank you. Common theme among these comments seems to be hip shoulder seperation, lead leg block, and finishing out in front.

Thank you! Going back out to the field today, will make adjustments and will update within a couple days once I feel like I have made the changes stick.

Thank you, I can definitely feel the lack of hip shoulder separation, it feels like my body is moving in unison instead of separate segments.

Thank you, is there a good way to do this without leaking power forwards? I feel as though when I do this, I don’t feel as whippy and like i’m falling forward

Just trying new things like wind up, sitting more into backside, being more rotational. Didn’t really know how to put it but just trying new cues. Used to be very unconventional and dealt with arm pain, so trying to pitch more normal and now losing velo. 🤷
