Re: How does strength relate to batspeed?

>>> 2) Bat speed must be at least influenced by strength, because it seems observable (in MLB today) that bigger, stronger people hit the ball further than people who are less strong. For that matter. men w/ perfect mechanics hit the ball further than women w/ perfect mechanics. <<<

Hi Scott

Welcome to the site. I would basically just ditto Donny’s assessment. – Efficient mechanics trumps strength with inefficient mechanics. Obviously, efficient mechanics applied with great force equals greater production.
