Unfortunately, his swing hits the ball into the ground... that's a result of keeping the same swing composition since he was teenager, but his body outgrew him and his swing. It's incredibly difficult to change. Depends on the person I guess. But I can't bemoan him. He's made the slight alterations over the winter to try and fix the problem. He's hitting the ball, that's a plus. Maybe the loft will come later?

His Exit Velocities are incredible. So, Again...the power isn't a problem

I wish he would shorten up the swing like Judge or swing a bit more up like Stanton...but that's easier said than done.

He's in the 45th percentile in the MLB for exit velocities so far this year. Fairly solid for a 22 year old player, but far from "incredible".
