What about all these biomechanical experts?

By , 04:21 AM

I wrote this on BTF in reference to this article about the recent trend (I guess) toward biomechanical analyis of hitters and pitchers by “non-scientists.” I added the “non-scientists” as there was no mention of that in the article. I am refering to guys like Will Caroll and Carlos Gomez.
