Sprouts starting to emerge?
Franklin batted 350 RH vs 338 LH in the fall.
Avg higher on the right so far this spring.
The double to left. It's probably the best we have seen from him on that side so far. The swing showed a more linear hand path to and thru the ball path to a pitch middle / away. Franklin maximized the time his bat was in the hitting area. Minimal head movement
Probably the best sign. The hard single to left. The in-swing adjustment on a inside pitch to get his hands in and the head of the bat squarely on the ball. That swing wasn't in his tool bag a season ago.
The swing may not look as pretty as the left, but it is starting to look rudimentary more consistent than the left.
Let's Hope.
