Re: Re: Re: Coach C on Epstein

Steve,

Since you have had the benefit of actually being there while Epstein worked with your kid, maybe you can help me out - I have only had the benefit of watching his video and reading some of the Collegiate Baseball articles. A couple of questions:

1) Where does THT (top hand torque) fit in to Epstein's model?

2) In Epstein's torque position to the short 3, it seems like the shoulders are way over rotated and the hands move way to forward as compared to what Mankin is advocating. I'm not saying one is right or wrong, I am just pointing differences I see.

3) What is the significance of sitting? Why is it so important to sit as much as Mike teaches? What does that do for the swing?

There is no question that Mike teaches the rotation part. But as I read and watch, you can rotate and still do things differently in the rotational world.
