This brings me back to my first point: when batters apply forces that move the bat barrel in a negative direction, they then must use forces to stop the bat barrel from moving in that negative direction to redirect it in a positive direction. This wastes force and takes up valuable time.

Matt-

The force that is needed and utilized to bring the bathead back in a positive direction to the ball is a force which is called Centrifugal Force. Look up the definition and you will understand that it works exactly in the favor of the batter.
