The Dodgers have had the same formula for years. Lots of home grown guys and sign/trade for players to supplement the roster. They have had very little postseason success over the years, outside of a bubble WS that isn’t a true title imo. They have even been swept out of the playoffs and had similar poor success recently, ala the Os….thus the comp. -
You are right. The leg kick simply screws up timing. You can't do that against ML pitchers. Strike zone awareness is also critical. The other thing I am very concerned about is the analytical driven stuff. While in the big picture it does help, you can't have effective at bats with that going through your head. It doesn't matter if you are a guess hitter. (a term I dispute) or a react hitter, you have to have a very concise plan for each at bat. -
First of all, I am not a hitting mechanics expert. But I think to keep his upper body and head quiet is important. i think the big leg kick makes that pretty difficult. So I like his new toe tap approach, but time will tell -

The challenge system is a band aid. Better than the current system, but slows the game down with challenges. It exposes the umpires when they miss a call. The full blown system is seamless and the umpire is still getting paid behind home plate, calling plays at the plate, foul tips, HBP, etc.
