Tyler Fitzgerald has been on a notable hot streak, significantly improving his batting performances over the past few games. His recent success is attributed to receiving hitting instruction from Barry Bonds. Fitzgerald has seen his performance skyrocket with a batting average of .444 and multiple home runs. Bonds' guidance appears to help Fitzgerald eliminate poor habits and improve his swing technique. While Fitzgerald's current performance is impressive, questions remain about the sustainability of this success and whether he can achieve a lasting career in Major League Baseball.
Barry actually helped me with that a little bit the last homestand. Just trying to get on top of the ball. As you can see, just with that thought, I'm able to backspin balls a little better.
It's undeniable that a hitting master suggesting something can be useful if it can be decoded and understood. Bonds is probably a bit better than most of these legends turned teachers.
While it's true that the greats don't always make for great teachers, it's undeniable that a hitting master suggesting something can be useful.
The odds of him keeping it up or making a major league career out of some percentage of that incredible output does seem low, but Fitzgerald's latent skillset already points to something like this.
