    and this
    and the golf analogy gebbeth used is a good one
    the last thing you want to do is try and make changes on the course
    that's what the range is for
    you want to work on whatever swing problems you have so that it becomes second nature on the course
    the worst thing you can do is be thinking about swing mechanics on the course
    same with baseball
    and to me joc looks like he's thinking about his swing (mechanics) rather than trying to hit/react
    like that line in bull durham, "outta your head meat"

    "Okay... see the ball, shorten up my swing, be aggressive, go with the pitch, don't be too aggressive,
    drive the ball back up the middle, be patient, hit the ball the other way, don't be too patient..."

    thats always how it is when a player takes on a new hitting approach
    special when he is mucking about with it in spring training
    its supposed to look horrible as he purposely does all the bad things so he can find out what the good things are
    baseball

    Lol wtf @irish

    Do you have a 300 Terra byte hard drive with pictures of us?

    Looking like I'll take the job in August. I was going to hold out for a bigger market, but decided not to risk it. Just take the opportunity I was given to build my resume. And it's a good opportunity to take advantage of low cost of living for a while. We pay a fortune to live in Cerritos

    i think you've made the right call
    that experience you'll get will prove priceless
    think of all the big time guys/gals...
    they always started in some out of the way place
    sometimes a few of them
    just stepping stones to the bigger prize

    and if we do a lair event in your absence we'll facetime you... bkitch :headpat:

    Congrats, and by the way, Irish does have a 300 TB drive, but it has other "pictures" and "images" than of us.

    :whistle:

    vaguely remember posting that picture when Amir and someone else were fighting...as my reaction to reading it or something. How stupid of me.
    Knew it would backfire.

    Was holding his hands higher from what I saw, still had leg kick, not nearly as much though.
    Results aside, I like the look of that, hands not as high as CarGo or AGon, but higher
    Doesn't need to hit it 480 feet
    415 will do

    still a big swing
    but definitely a lot shorter than before
    not perfect mechanics, but very good at the point of contact -- particularly his head down [homo] on the ball [homo]
    hard to tell from the limited amount of film i've watched this spring, but it seems there are still vulnerabilities a good pitcher could exploit
    don't want to be too hard [homo] on him, just hoping to see more of this from him...
