Blair & Barker
Alejandro Kirk Returns + How John Schneider Balances Workloads

You know, it just looks like it's got a little snap at the end of it, right?

Blair & Barker
Alejandro Kirk Returns + How John Schneider Balances Workloads

I mean, he can manipulate it to a left.

Blair & Barker
Alejandro Kirk Returns + How John Schneider Balances Workloads

He can make it look a little bit more like 12-6.

Blair & Barker
Alejandro Kirk Returns + How John Schneider Balances Workloads

He can go down and away with it to a righty, which is a big deal.

Blair & Barker
Alejandro Kirk Returns + How John Schneider Balances Workloads

I think it's just how tight it is, how long the lanes.

Blair & Barker
Alejandro Kirk Returns + How John Schneider Balances Workloads

He kept the secondary stuff in him.

Blair & Barker
Alejandro Kirk Returns + How John Schneider Balances Workloads

And that location, glove side, glove side is kind of the way he's made his mark.

Blair & Barker
Alejandro Kirk Returns + How John Schneider Balances Workloads

Yeah, absolutely.

Blair & Barker
Alejandro Kirk Returns + How John Schneider Balances Workloads

horses of humans and just like to get those arms extended the more you can crowd them the more you can kind of get them in swing mode there get them opening up to chase to get to something with a little bit of velocity and then you can go up you can front hip it you can back foot it you can 12-6 it like there's a bunch of things you can do but he's got to set it up a certain way and for him to be able to set it up in there and be competitive in there

Blair & Barker
Alejandro Kirk Returns + How John Schneider Balances Workloads

just kind of opens up everything else.

Blair & Barker
Alejandro Kirk Returns + How John Schneider Balances Workloads

He's a human being.

Blair & Barker
Alejandro Kirk Returns + How John Schneider Balances Workloads

He's not perfect.

Blair & Barker
Alejandro Kirk Returns + How John Schneider Balances Workloads

So he's doing that for a reason, right?

Blair & Barker
Alejandro Kirk Returns + How John Schneider Balances Workloads

When I established this, it just makes it easier for everything else to be sort of set up the way he wants it to be set up.

Blair & Barker
Alejandro Kirk Returns + How John Schneider Balances Workloads

And, you know, it is, again, most of the guys he faces are right-handed.
