I was always taught the opposite of what Pinella was just saying. Every coach I ever had said to pick a spot on the batter's box and stay there for the duration of your time against that pitcher. You want to get a look at the pitcher from 1 location so you can time him, figure out the arm angle, etc. Moving around in the box after each pitch makes it a lot harder to do this.

The more I watch baseball, the more I'm convinced that nobody in the game has any clue about anything. Everybody has a different opinion on everything.
