Teacherman-
You have definitely got the dogma down.
A few more protestations of faith like that and you may get out of the doghouse.
I hear they have some openings over at the scientific site.
You can help perfect the no arm action/no torque fastpitch swing.
Trouble is it might not be best there except maybe in the mens game.
At least Epstein and Lau are describing the actual high level baseball swing.
I don't think you create the baseball swing from the middle out, you have to work the ends of the body against each other(thigh/hips vs arms/scaps).
But maybe I'm not scientistic enough as they say on the Colbert Report.
