And we noticed, obviously, from a profile perspective, the kid hits the ball really hard.
Obviously, there's an opportunity for him to catch the ball a little bit further out in front, use his pull side gap a little bit more.
Like, there's opportunities for that.
But he hits the ball hard enough to drive the ball to center left center field.
But just kind of looking at the move, the move was a little big.
And sometimes we get out of sync.
And we kind of just felt like, yeah, simplifying this could help his ball flight.
