> Any drills/suggestions to delay launching arm/hands to create a little bat lag into swing. Notice that grandson's hands/arm being launched just as front foot hits ground. Would cocking the wrist help?

IMO this is not a big problem as long as the bat is being sent rearward before it is sent into the swing plane and as long as the weight shift does not happen prior to the barrel being sent forward.
