cbfoulds,
I think my head height is OK and my lock in is working. This is a frame that immediately preceded the 1st "pitch in the dirt" you reference above.  I "lock-in" when the pitcher "sets" to receive the pitch. I stay in that set, even should the catcher move. I believe in the pics you reference, the catcher has "gotten tall" as part of his blocking technique, and I'm locked in where I started. JM

JM, I agree with CB... bring your head up higher ever so slightly.
In regards to the pants thing - I'm always afraid that if I get them too long that they will droop in the back and drag on the dirt. I think it depends on your shoes. I wear Tanel 360's. Has anyone else experimented or have the same problem? PS - I told you to drop the coach thing on your screen name years ago! (all you will be losing is post count) You look great brother!

I'm a 32 inseam and my poly-wools are hemmed a little over 33". They probably look a tad bit long to some people, but I'd rather have them that way than have them half way up my shin guards like my Smitty pants that I have. I had those hemmed way too short and they were constantly getting stuck on the tops of my shoes.

You had stated earlier that you remain locked even if the catcher adjusts. You may want to consider moving with the catcher and re-lock so you're in the proper position in the slot. When I was critiqued in the past, I was coached to adjust with the catcher. I feel comfortable re-locking now.
Not sure if you've tried that or not. I can say that the MLB guys will often times adjust with the catcher...it's something that is easy to see with the centerfield cameras. Looks pretty good though.

Nothing at all. Less wear and tear on the legs and back and heart when the weight is down.
I think I have spent at least 30 years trying to either get thin or remain somewhere near thin. I see buddies who used to be rail thin 20 or so years ago who are now considerably heavier than I am now that we're in our early 50s. I watch things carefully and do a fair amount of exercise to remain at my playing weight of 200 (6'0''), while they kick back and soar right past me. I can also still run pretty fast and throw pretty well, which is something that none of my old buddies can still do. So, if you're predisposed to being thin: all the power to you!
