Jack, is this true?

Dear Jack,
hi. After reading your statement in Truisms and Fallacies:"Swing for the fences, ruin your mechanics" which states "...the average tension free swing of the hitter carries plenty of bat speed to clear the fence in most any direction. His main concern is timing and getting the plane of his swing in line with the ball," i was just wondering -- I am 14 years old, 5 foot 6 inches and not all that strong. I am a decent hitter using a 26 oz. bat, and play at major league sized field (330 to the corners, 430 to center) Are you saying that with rotational mechanics, my tension free swing can clear the fence there in any direction? Because quite frankly i don't believe its possible... Please write back and help me to better understand this statement.
Thank you and happy New Year,
Joe C.
