Where are the hands and the position of the bat at footplant with most of the great hitters? Just spent a couple of hours checking out some of the greats and it is interesting, because even though they have different styles, they are all very similar at footplant.



That's why they are all "greats". I'd say at least 90% of Hall of Famers have almost identical swings. Once the heel drops, they are in very similar positions and carry out very similar swings. How they get to that point is up to them and they're style.
