John Jaso. Baseball Player Mechanics Analysis-Oakland A’s
The analysis of some aspects of the technique can help to
explain the athlete’s performance, injuries and his/her future possibilities.
With the information that we present in this blog I’m not intended to replace a
scientifically organized evaluation process, but just to play with the
available information.
Mr. Jaso does not seem to have history of recurrent and/or
sever injuries since the beginning of his pro career.
Analyzing his running
technique we can observe an extension of his knees before landing what
creates a rigid leg that, while impacting the ground, creates risk for his
knees, ankles and hips areas. Landing occurs with the heels in front of the hip
creating stopping forces and increasing the risk of damage at the mentioned leg
areas.
