About that hole in Bart’s swing - in the Bailey video I notice that Patrick has a rather open stance. I wonder if that might be a solution for Bart. Surely there have been other tall hitters with similar problems as they developed - what did they do to succeed?
Speaking of Bart, this brings me to my frequent observation: if you have a young catcher who seems to be an outstanding hitter (let’s call him, say, Custer Bosey), why wouldn’t you move him to another position to preserve his hitting future? Is having an outstanding catcher who hits well for 5-6 years more valuable than having an outstanding hitter for 8-9 years? I don’t think so.
