Cubs right fielder Jason Heyward has been re-working his swing with Cubs assistant coach Darnell McDonald during the offseason in Arizona for the upcoming season. Heyward batted .230 with seven homers, 49 RBIs and .306 on-base percentage in 2016. As you can tell by the following video, it's a shorter swing path through the zone so hopefully, he will be able to catch up with more fastballs than in 2016. The second video posted is just a Happy Gilmore type walk-up swing but it's still pretty cool. Hard work. Determination. Belief. ?? pic.twitter.com/h5TccJiKnt That's my hitting coach! ?? #cubs pic.twitter.com/F4IbStbnkK
