If, before visiting my blog-site,
you have been exposed to the completely erroneous, utterly illogical and scientifically, indefensibly generalized (even absolutely idiotic, outrageous and asinine) claim in an October 24, 2013 Internet-based source that an "over the top" baseball-pitching arm-slot is
"more Dangerous!!!!",
Ignore that rubbish.
Note: As presented above, the word "dangerous" followed by four exclamation points is the precise language and punctuation over-kill employed in the headline of the referred to source.
If you do not ignore the above referenced rubbish,
you will deprive yourself of the opportunity both to achieve to whatever constitutes your individual capacity for pitching a baseball and to be far, far, far less likely to sustain a baseball pitching-related injury in contrast to the employ of conventional baseball pitching-mechanics and any associated arm-slot ("over the top" or otherwise).
FACTUALLY, DEMONSTRABLY AND ABSOLUTELY, SCIENTIFICALLY IRREFUTABLY, THE VERTICAL TO THE GROUND ARM-SLOT (which is as "over the top" an arm-slot for pitching a baseball as is physically achievable) EMPLOYING OVERHAND TENNIS SERVE TECHNIQUE IN EXECUTION OF "STATIC-STANCE STARTING-POSITIONⓒ" OUTMAN METHODOLOGYTM ROTATIONAL PITCHING IS THE MOST PRECISE, THE MOST SIMPLE, THE BEST (in terms of baseball pitching-performance) AND THE SAFEST (relative to the health of the pitcher) EMPLOY OF THE HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY FOR PITCHING A BASEBALL.
*********
With the introduction nearly 29 years ago (as of 9-2023) of the very first iteration of Outman Methodology™ for pitching a baseball on the vertical plane, conventional baseball pitching-mechanics became functionally and physical sciences factually obsolete.
As of 11-2019 having achieved my long held goal (as explained below) of "static-stance starting-positionⓒ" pitching-delivery and having more recently (as of 8-2023) arrived at visualizing and employing Overhand Tennis Serve Technique in it's exeution, conventional baseball pitching-mechanics (or any other mechanical employ of the human physiology for pitching a baseball) is both utterly obsolete and (as has been the case for decades) hopelessly unsalvageable.
It is now unarguably the time for aspiring baseball pitchers, and those teaching aspiring baseball pitchers, to abandon the utterly obsolete, overly complex, inherently imprecise, physically damaging and injurious, inconsistent performing, altogether inferior and worn out conventional baseball pitching-mechanics template in favor of the State of Art baseball pitching paradigm: Overhand Tennis Serve Technique employing "Static-stance starting-positionⓒ" advanced overall mechanical execution Finalized Outman Methodology™ Rotational Pitchingⓒ on the Vertical Plane.
*********
FORTY TWO years ago (as of September, 2023) I concluded that the ideal positioning from which to start a pitching-delivery would be from the static point at which the pivot-Foot (rear Foot...rear pivot-Foot consistent with my methodology) and the free-Foot (front Foot...front pivot-Foot consistent with my methodology) are located in relationship to each other having accomplished the stride (short/liesure, ordinary walking-step consistent with correct execution of my methodology previous to "static-stance starting-positionⓒ") in the direction of the catcher.
NEARLY TWENTY NINE years ago (as of September, 2023), I informed both of my sons (Josh and Zach) of my above stated conclusion when I began to teach them to pitch a baseball.
Employing the "static-stance starting-position" is the ideal position from which to start a baseball pitching-delivery based on The Principle of Simplicity (which states that entities should not be multiplied unnecessarily or, more colloquially, "Keep it Simple, Stupid"...K.I.S.S.) and the fact that Linear movement and momentum in the direction of the catcher in execution of a baseball pitching-delivery that does not directly result from Rotational Acceleration, Movement and Momentum is deleterious (even destructive) in terms of pitching-performance factors and the physical health of the pitcher and needed, therefore, ultimately to be eliminated from a baseball pitching-delivery! Which I have accomplished with the "static-stance starting-position".
Therefore, I have updated my site to reflect and to teach mentally visualizing and employing Overhand Tennis Serve Technique in execution of my "Static-Stance Starting-Position"ⓒ Advanced Overall Mechanical Execution Finalized Outman Methodology™ Rotational Pitchingⓒ on the Vertical Plane.
It is revolutionary in terms of baseball pitching mechanics constituting the ideal baseball pitching-delivery relative to pitching performance factors of velocity of, command over and movement of the pitched baseball and relative to the health of the baseball pitching Elbow, Arm and Shoulder of the pitcher.
As an aside, I am also the inventor of Rotational Hitting dating back to 1990 ("Rotational Hitting' Instructional Video-Tutorial").

If you are already a baseball pitcher OR if you are teaching (or you are intending to teach) someone (regardless of how young) how to pitch a baseball, Overhand Tennis Serve Technique "Static-Stance Starting-Positionⓒ" Advanced Overall Mechanical Execution Finalized Outman Methodology™ Rotational Pitchingⓒ on the Vertical Plane IS the mechanical employ of the human physiology that you should personally be utilizing (or teaching) for pitching a baseball.

Below are links to new (as of August 31, 2023) videos in which I am mentally visualizing and employing (at age of 73) Overhand Tennis Serve technique in execution of pitching-deliveries for the purpose of providing duplicable rhythm and pace.
As noted in the descriptions of the below videos and mentioned in at least one of my video tutorials, because of my age I am rarely able to convince my old body to lateral tilt sufficiently in the direction of my glove-side in order to achieve vertical to the ground orientation of the Humerus (upper arm) of my pitching-arm, which anyone significantly younger than me should be able relatively easily to accomplish.
It has only been over the course of the last few years that I began experiencing the inability to achieve the lateral tilt of which I was once capable.
Were I yet capable of achieving vertical orientation to the ground by the Humerus of my pitching-arm, I would be able to produce greater accelerating force at the Third Moment of Greatest Leverage.
The photos below of my sons Josh and Zach show achievement of vertical to the ground orientation of the Humerus of their respective pitching-arms.

AS OF WHATEVER IS THE CURRENT DATE, I am yet capable of executing hundreds of pitches per session many days in succession without experiencing injury, without applying even a single ice-cube to any part of my body post pitching-session and without ingesting an oral analgesic such as ibuprofen (see "Accumulating Pitch-Count").
AND, as of whatever is the current date, I yet pitch a baseball on mounds in actual regular-season and tournament competition baseball games.

Below are two rear-view, sequential photos of my left-handed son Josh (age 13) on flat ground from the Summer of 1998
Below is a side-view photo of my right-handed son Zach (age 10) on flat ground from the Fall of 1998

TAKE NOTE: If you choose to learn how (or to teach someone how) to "pitch like a major leaguer", you will also be choosing to learn (or to teach) how to be injured (in manifold ways) like a major leaguer!
Pitching a baseball "like a major leaguer" and highly probably suffering baseball pitching-related injuries are inextricably, causally and unavoidably related!
"Major league" baseball pitching-mechanics is neither the means by which to achieve to your individual capacity (your highest level of performance) for pitching a baseball NOR does "major league" baseball pitching-mechanics constitute so-called "proper" baseball pitching-mechanics that results in avoiding pitching-related injuries. In actual fact, precisely the opposite is true!
