Unfortunately, I think you are spot on with your observations.

One question I forgot to post for snote to ask Coach Bab is, "When the pitchers feel that something is wrong with their mechanics, who do they go to for assistance?" I already know the answer, but I would like to hear what response Coach Bab would give.
