I think it looks horrible. It reminds me of some of the mechanics of fast pitch softball.
Anybod know if Reilly's technique is the wave of the future?
If it is, I'll have to give up treaching.

I'm pretty sure I've heard a story about Reilly instructing at clinics and saying "do what I say, not what I do," acknowledging that he's a bobble-head behind the plate and it's NOT a good habit.
