Analyzing Derek Jeter’s swing

A.J.'s approach to lefties
Game 31: Start a streak

These Saturday night games are a bitch, but here’s something to help you pass the time. Chris O’Leary, who’s written more about baseball mechanics than I care to recap, broke down Derek Jeter’s swing and shows us what’s going wrong with the Cap’n. “Jeter strikes me as your classic incredibly gifted athlete who, as he gets older, is no longer able to get away with a highly unusual, and fundamentally flawed, swing,” says O’Leary. Make sure you check it out, there’s tons of gifs to show you exactly what’s going on. Very interesting stuff.
