Do you think those wiffle ball machines are helpful. The mini golf0ball sized wiffle balls being shot at of machines and you have to hit them with some stick. Your thoughts?

IronManRipken,

Sure, those machines could help improve your concentration and hand eye coordination. If you remember the movie Mr. Baseball, there is even a part where the "Japanese coach" gives wiffle ball practice using golf balls. However, nothing will ever replace simply swinging a regular bat. I would only use this type of practice as a supplement.

Best,
