Major League Hitting Coach Rudy Jaramillo Hosts Hitting Camp in Dallas, TX

 

                                                     

Slammers Training Academy Co-Owner Ed Tolzien was invited to spend the weekend alongside of current Chicago Cubs Hitting Coach Rudy Jaramillo in Dallas, TX.  Rudy Jaramillo has worked with some of the greatest hitters currently in the Major Leagues.  His simple 5-step approach has helped players like Jeff Bagwell, Alex Rodriguez, Michael Young, Josh Hamilton and Starlin Castro.  Jaramillo has spent 15 years with the Texas Rangers and 2 years with the Cubs with 17 of his players winning the Silver Slugger Award and 3 MVP Awards under his guidance as a Hitting Coach.

Slammers own Ed Tolzien talks about sharing this weekend experience:  "Having the chance to work with the best Hitting Coach in Baseball today was special, listening to him discuss about the same principles and ideas we teach at Slammers gives me confidence that we will continue to churn out great hitters at our facility.  His 5-Step System: See the Ball, Hit with Rhythm, Separation, Staying Square and Weight Shift & Transfer is based off the same fundamentals Slammers instills with our players and the system doesn't get much simpler than that."
