Correction in my previous post. I meant left field line when talking about Lincecum's chest. The point is it is still incredibly closed off.
Lincecum is in the pre-stretch of the core muscles which allows him to more effectively contract his muscles and generate velocity. Good power hitters use this to a lessor degree.
If you go back in history, the harder throwing pitchers, as they do now, were already pronating.
