So, even if the pitchers throw harder today, everything being equal, then the batters are bigger and stronger, and can swing harder, and faster. My whole point, is that you want to base "EVERYTHING" , on rotational mechanics.Even if the pitchers were to throw harder, that doesn't automatically make them any better than a guy of 30 years ago!! Who's your next "greatest hitter of all time"? The guy who's bigger, and hits more home runs than Bonds? I wonder how many home runs the "former greatest hitter of all time" would have? Remember Ted Williams. How many home runs you think he'd have with 40 extra pounds of imitation muscle on him?

Is your point you don't believe in rotational mechanics? If so why do you frequent this site? If you're looking for an argument you can get one. If you think you can weight shift to big numbers go ahead. We, here, happen to believe differently and have quite a bit of evidence supporting us.

And, I think you better leave any Ted Williams analysis in my corner. He did pretty darn good with rotational mechanics. His size had little to do with his performance. What does that say about your "size" theory. Barry's size doesn't hurt him but it doesn't give a full explanation of his numbers. His mechanics might.
