I agree with TR that baseball gets too scientific, but I also think that it gets too generic. I always hear "see the ball, hit the ball" then someone else says "make sure you're right knee is perpendicular to the alignement of the shoulders". I don't think neither of those helps. I think the specificty lie in the middle somewhere. Some players need more specific instruction, some need more general instruction.
The above quote is what Mr. 3000 wrote regarding hitting and how he agreed with TR about some coaches trying to be to scientific and others trying to be to generic.

I agree.
The quote above is how Linear replied.
Now, I have placed the actually thought that Linear is refering to in Mr. 3000 message in bold. Now a real coach would have explained why they agree with the statement in question. What they would be focusing on and How they would go about teaching it different and what they would be looking for. However, Linear just gives a one liner about how he agrees but offers no explanation.
