I like both drills (straight on pitching outside AND angled toss) but what you can do to save time in a practice is, instead of moving the net every time, you can have the batter start straight on hitting outside pitches to opposite field, and then have them start with an open stance which would simulate the net being moved.  Therefore a righty would open up to the 6 hole and stride there while trying to hit the ball back up the middle.  You could also do the same thing closed off to work on breaking pitches and staying closed.

Not sure I could do that.  I know it's simple, but I had a ritual when stepping into the box, both physically and mentally.  I just assume most hitters, at least the better hitters, are the same way.  I don't like changing anything in the box, for me at least, it is worth the little extra time to either move the net or have another net close to that area ready to go.
