Mike trout said his approach is looking fastball middle. That is all the approach you need, give about the outer 3 inch of the zone to the pitcher and be very aggressive in that heart of the zone.

Depending on your strengths that heart can slightly be shifted within the zone (for example a bit more in or up if you like that more) but generally that still should be the approach, don't overthink it.

The key really is not the approach but the pitch recognition to execute it.

I'll need to look up Trout's approach. Thanks. I like your last thought. Thanks.
