Sounds to me(from my limited memory of Jason's swing) that they were trying to teach a hitter how to swing...

I think he is a swinger. I think one problem is that Gore's physique makes it difficult to get the arms to swing low and inside, like Bennett and Plummer prefer. Trust me, it's a lot easier to have low arms at the top when you don't have some type of upper body bulk getting in the way.
