IMO. Good hitters are born, not made. Good hitting coaches can tweak a good hitter into a great one, but real difficult to make a bad hitter a good one. I have always been weary coaches looking to make wholesale changes to good hitters, have much preferred those that make minor adjustments.
Agreed.
