02/23/2019 - Mid Atlantic Regional Hitting Weekend (Ages 14-18) Manuel is an athletic and talented 2020 prospect that was eager to learn and made several adjustments throughout the weekend. At the plate, Manuel starts in an open and athletic stance. He loads his hands back into the drive position, gets his front foot down on time, and creates backside drive with his lower half. He needs to continue to attack the inside part of the ball, keep his head behind the ball throughout the swing, and keep a middle approach. Manuel will continue to improve with experience and we hope to see his progress in the future.
