"but all the force and drive is from the back leg rotating into contact." IMO what the back leg does is Effect and not Cause.

"When you rotate you are still rotating forward and not spinning like a top" So not rotating...

Pujols always used a stride. But a small one.

EVERY good hitter rotates like a top. EVERY one.

Pujols' front foot was open when he broke into the league but then closed it starting in 2010 or so.

I don't care about IMO. Show me a clip of what you're talking about.

Since you're rotating around your center of mass, no weight needs to shift once you reach Foot Plant and go into Rotation.

Pujols front foot moves forward in this clip.

How does a top spin? On a stable axis. Which is what Ted Williams does. So Ted Williams employs a Linear movement and then goes into Rotation. And he gets up onto the point of his back toe due in part to that Linear movement but mostly due to the Rotation of his hips.

Most problems, that are diagnosed as problems of ROTATION, are actually problems with the TIMING of that Rotation. And that's where concepts like ADJUSTABILITY become relevant.

Barry Bonds with an even smaller Linear move and then into Rotation as he goes into Foot Plant. That keeps him from getting all of his weight off his back foot, but it doesn't keep his hips from being able to turn.

I'm thinking about this clip of Andrew McCutchen Andrew McCutchen which I think is from 2017. There's some PULL in his top hand, and I'm trying to figure out if that is one reason why his numbers have fallen off some. PULL can reduce the distance and time to adjust.

Clemente! Coil! Need words! SO BEAUTIFUL!!!
