Why Is Byron Buxton Swinging & Missing?

Thanks, I wondered where Buxton ranked as he swings at everything.

Respectfully there is MUCH more to Byron striking out so much. 

1st the second pitch of that example at bat was not a cutter. was just a fastball up and in that he should have hit .. but didn't. 

The biggest problem that Buxton has is not what pitch he is swinging at but is a result of the underlying problem. 

Coaches and hitting coaches can point this out and he has been doing for several years.

His front side is "flying out" on every swing. When he first came up his swing was pretty level and he didn't overswing. His focus was on hitting the ball hard somewhere and wasn't "hunting" something to hit 450 ft. 

As a "result" of the current swing and pulling off the ball opposing pitching coaches are going to go hard in and down as he can't do anything with that pitch or what has been seen a ton - sliders on the outer half... doesn't really matter where too much as his front side is GONE and he is going to either miss the pitch.. foul it off or hit it weakly somewhere as he can't square it up. 

How to fix it? Has to close up his front side so he can't do what he is currently doing as well as focus on hitting it to right center, so he stays on the ball. Will they have him do it? Haven't seen it yet... Sano did the same thing. Got pull happy and just about cost him his career.
