Ever since I switched over to rotational mechanics, I can't seem to wait on the ball. I always swing early, even when i try 2 wait. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Check your hands and make sure they stay back as long as possible during the stride and initiation of the hip rotation.

Stand further away from the plate in practice and pretend every pitch is an outside pitch. This will force you to wait a split second longer in order to make contact.
