what are the pros and cons of having an open stance like luis gonzales,and what are there more of(pros/cons)any information would be helpful and appreciated, thanks.

>>I think his open stance to me does'nt mean much sense he strides back toward the plate and cocks his hip as most all others do.However it may make him more comfortable,he may see it better for him,it may keep his weight back better since he really is'nt striding forward rather in toward the plate.The problem area comes when you stride to an open stance or stepping in the bucket.
