Not to be a party-pooper but I’m just not a fan of this guy… I mean, I get it. It’s one thing to know a lot about baseball, even be a bit compulsive about it, but I can’t help but think of the time and research put into doing all this and can’t help but feel a little bad for the guy. Get a job… and by job I mean other than being “the batting stance guy.” Maybe start working on 80’s professional wrestling signature moves or something. There’s something that’ll bag the ladies.
I don’t see anything wrong with it. He’s milking his 15 minutes even beyond one season, and somehow managed to get some even bigger exposure this year as well. As long as the demand is there, he’ll keep appearing. In the grand perspective, yeah, it’s a little lame, but he’s not hurting anyone, so go for it.
Personally, I only really like his over-the-top ones, like Youkilis, Ichiro, Utley and Jeter, etc, but the best was when he did his impression of Nomar Garciaparra, right in front of Nomar, with Nomar not knowing what to really do/say, except stand there with this party-pooper look on his face.
Batting Stance guy does Braves' hiters

Cant really be any better than Park/Happ.
In fact, I think they’ll regret sending Happ back to the pen
