Chris,

At least we agree that the goal is reached in many different ways. That was my point. So
do we really have to debate what the "goal" or "best mechanics" should be labeled or
called? If I were to name the "best mechanics" that the best Big Leaguers use it would be
called "Efficient". I just feel that the terms linear and rotational are too far to each extreem
of what the goal is. This can mislead and confuse young hitters into executing poor
mechanics across the board.
