Reply to "Called strikes and missed swings"

A high percentage of called strikes could be the coach's or the player's hitting approach. It could be where the hitter is situated in the batting order. If a hitter is in a slump it might suggest he's not aggressive enough. He's taking too many strikes. In the big picture I would be more concerned about called third strike percentage of overall at bats.

Low percentage of contact when swinging is a red flag. Only a #2 hitter might be swinging through pitches more often to protect the lead off hitter stealing.
