Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Joey Loperfido looks to be working on his game as viral video shows how much his swing has improved so far this off-season.
The Blue Jays acquired Loperfido as part of the massive trade that sent pitcher Yusei Kikuchi to the Houston Astros and brought back a bunch of solid prospects for Toronto.

The Blue Jays are still looking for a solid outfielder to pair with George Springer and Daulton Varsho next season and it looks like Loperfido might end up being that player.
A video went viral yesterday of Loperfido working on his swing and he looks great in the clip as it seems his is working on adding a little more depth to his bat path to improve his plate apperances.
Big changes on the hand placement for Joey Loperfido. He said he's "in a better spot to handle verty stuff and has a little more depth in his bat path"
Some recent Joey Loperfido swings
Loperfido struggled at the plate last season for the Blue Jays as he hit two homeruns and 9 RBIs in 43 games with a .197 batting average and .236 on base percentage since arriving in Toronto at the start of August.
If Loperfido is able to improve his hitting and shows up to Spring Training, proving that he is a better hitter than last season, there is a good chance the Blue Jays keep him as one of their starters.
While this is only one short clip, fans are excited to see the improvements since Loperfido is still very young and is showing a ton of potential.
The Blue Jays prospects are often referred to as some of the worst in the league but it is hard to believe with players such as Will Wagner, Joey Loperfido and Trey Yesavage.
