If you look at the clips (youth web site) of Guerrero and Mac (from the back) there is a distinct (to me) difference in the contact point: Mac is more at full extension, while Vlad has pulled his hands more inside, shortening the radius of the swing. Are there different techniques going on here? What are the implications of each technique? Which is more common in MLB? Thoughts would be appreciated. Nick
