Guru-
I don't know how you could say that linear hitting makes no sense. Isn't the purpose of a good swing to get your body weight behind the ball? Why would you throw your hips and take out the entire bottom half of your body? Think of it this way, if you wanted to push a 100lb sled to first base would you open your hips and then try to push? No because you wouldnt be able to push it with just your arms so why would you do that when a balls coming? you may have bat speed but i hope it's an inside pitch and you're playing on a round field otherwise you won't make it very far in the game.
