Swinging at balls and taking strikes

Looking for some thoughts.

My swing is alright. In bp I routinely and consistently backspin balls to all fields and pepper in a few home runs. I struggle at the plate in the games because my pitch selection is absolutely terrible. I swing at off speed down and at fastballs up out of the zone. I whiff on righty sliders down and in and lefty sliders away. No matter what I do I can't lay off the bad ones in order to get to a good pitch to hit. On top of this every once in a while i wont be able to pull the trigger when I'll get a fastball to hit or seethe off speed up.

I've gotten my eyes checked so I don't believe that's the problem, but I'm kinda stuck on ideas of how to improve my pitch selection.
