strange batting stances

77smbg9177 · 02-04-2007, 02:13 PM

which players have the strangest batting stances and which pitchers have the strangest wind ups?

77smbg9177 · 02-04-2007, 02:15 PM

I already said who I thought was the strangest swing but in terms of oddity when a guy is at the plate it has to be Nomar. OCD for sure, and the windup would be D. Willis.

Mickey Tettleton, or Eric Davis.

True i forgot all about them

Tony Batista might have the ugliest stance/swing I've ever seen. Otsuka's windup is interesting, he comes to a pause mid-windup

Lenny Dykstra's batting stance was weird as well. Tony Batista's stance is an all or nothing type.

77smbg9177 · 02-07-2007, 12:14 PM

That true but it works for him

yeah Dykstra did have a great career, and will always be remembered for being the leader of the 93 team that went to the World Series.

That he will be

Craig Counsell gets pretty distorted at the plate.

all4phillysportsfan · 02-07-2007, 08:54 PM

yeah Counsell does have a weird stance. He couldn't hit the ball the opposite way to save his life.

77smbg9177 · 02-07-2007, 09:57 PM

Thats Craig for you though everyone knows he is a horibble opposite field hitter and he needs to work on that and he is a bad job on working on that
