I said borderline for a reason...both he and Yelich get over their back foot more than most but you are correct they are still balanced enough to be able to move out properly.Not really. His nose is never behind his belly button. His ‘shoulders’ get loaded at the right time. His mass moves first. He uses a lot more momentum then most.
Torres shoulder angle is pretty set as he starts to move out but he does continue to pullback as he moves out which is important.The shoulders should coil AFTER the hips. But not by actively coiling. That’s long. The resistance/momentum coils the front shoulder.
You don’t coil the shoulders at the same time as the hips. At least not in an mlb swing. The move out loads the shoulders.
