I don't really agree with the preset posture statement. I believe posture is established to support the hands wherever the pitch location may be. All taken from one AB with Miggy

I also don't believe a hitter with good posture comes out their posture to hit a high pitch.. not saying it doesn't happen, but ideally it shouldn't. It's just different posture established for that pitch location.
are you using ‘stills’ ? Not a good way to make a point J. But you could use the ‘yankeesbeisbol’ sign to see that his head has lowered for each pitch while the forward bend is virtually the same.
I don’t see his chest tilt more over the plate to get to the low/outside pitch. I do see his legs adjust to the outside pitch. Notice the head is lower as well? There isn’t time to ‘adjust’ your posture. That’s why guys have the chest over the plate before foot down. Now all they have to do is adjust to height. They already have the space to work in/out. I think using forward bend as an adjuster adds slack.
here’s Miggy. Comes outta posture for the high pitch after foot down. Stays with the same forward bend during launch, regardless of location for the other 4 locations. The lower the pitch the lower the head. Believed the term is ‘sitting’. I think the adjustments are made with the legs/hands. Not the torso. We don’t have to agree. Just pointing out what I believe.
