> Yes actually thats what I did this year (move down from a 32'' to a 33'' bat) and it definitely helped a lot because it made me quicker with the bat and therefore I could read the pitch for a longer time, which made me have better contact. So even if this is not the reason for your slump, I definitely recommend that you make the switch, since it could help you.

I actually went ahead and made the switch and it has made a big difference
