I read in a different post last night that hitters are not advised to start in a nuetral hand position at setup. This did seem to help to consistancy of strike. If you stick around here for a while, left hand wrist cock will cease to be something you do actively. It will become something that just happens. In regard to Hitters, they dont cock their left wrist to any great benefit but they do cock their right elbow.
