After looking at several different mlb player's strides and doing some research I feel mine is too short. Am I correct and what is the effect of having a short stride?
I think the whole premise of your question is wrong.
So your stride is shorter than average. Who cares? Is it causing you a problem?
If it's not broken, then why fix it (and risk breaking something)?
I'm sure your mechanics are different than those of most professionals, but no two professional pitchers have the same mechanics.
