Not here.
Notice the low hands. several HL high average hitters have had low hands.
Just shows you absolutes are hard to come by in the swing.
Just goes to show you, you got to know where to look.....

So is Brett starting already tilted? Instead of tilting at initiation? I see his/this tilting in fastpitch hitters, although not so much in MLB hitters. I see it in youth hitters as well.

Watch his lead shoulder in the blue uni gif. Looks like it starts up, turns down and in and then comes back up.

Do you think the arm/arms tilt to create a tilting action? Is it just the upper/lower torso that creates the tilting, and the arms follow? Or is it like in Epstein's video and info where you tilt (arms, swing plane) the upperbody and the torso tilts to accommodate the tilting of the swing plane?

Did any of that make any sense?
