"I also see a number of ML hitters that use a slight lateral hip movement after stride foot plant"

Always after? Or does the lateral hip movement that happens after foot plant happen at that moment because he reached out with the foot and he needs to get back to a good position?http://www.youthbaseballcoaching.com/mpg/bonds600.mpeg

"in order to reach the 50-50 distribution."

If it's about getting to a static measurable weight distribution, why do we see hitters come up or even off their back toe? How would you do this from a static weight distribution?

"Gwynn said " when I stride to hit, my front foot moves on it's own"."

Is he trying to say it moves independent of everything else including his hips/center or is he saying the hips/center/middle carries the front foot out independent of the upper torso?
