Hank Aaron, Roberto Clemente, Stan Musial: Linear?


Posted by: Paul () on Fri Oct 15 16:30:50 2010


Recently, I have read several things from so called "hitting coaches" that say that Stan Musial, Hank Aaron, and Roberto Clemente were linear. The "hitting coaches" say this because all three ended with almost all the weight on their front feet. I believe that this is because some of the swings of Aaron's, Clemente's, and Musial's time tended to be a little more "lungy" in that the weight was transferred to a fairly stiff front leg during rotation and all the weight moved to the front leg after wrist "snap or roll". Does anyone actually agree with these so called "coaches"?
