Andrew Benintendi has had 16 flyouts with 90+ mph exit velo since May 1st, 2023. That’s tough — but it’s also a lesson. He’s finding barrels. The swing is consistent. The problem? He’s not hitting the ball hard enough to do real damage. At this point, he has two options: Eat — gain weight and add mass behind the move. Or stretch — create more tension, more resistance, and launch from it. He could absolutely find a way to create more momentum into that stretch — and get more out of the same swing. But that’s probably not him. Benintendi’s already found his swing. Now it’s about putting more behind it. If he wants to be an All-Star again, it won’t come from tweaking mechanics. It’ll come from either adding horsepower — or getting more out of the stretch he’s already built
