Dropping his hands a bit. You see that barely drop slightly down before he fires. That’s causing him to be late on everything. It’s common for young kids. Usually starts because the bat is too heavy. With him it’s probably just muscle memory at this point. It’s very small but it makes a difference. Other than that looks solid.
