Any functionality behind this?

I would guess there isn't much functionality behind this, since being good at knowing/guessing a pitcher and knowing what way to swing, seem like they could use skills associated with a number of different functions. (Si to pickup tendencies over time, Se to pick up what is happening at the moment, one of the T's to make a good guess, maybe others as well.)

How about mechanics? I guess F would lend itself more to fluid motion but what about those who do well to correct hitting or pitching form? Is it strictly an F thing? Is there a function that aids discipline? Like in practicing? That wouldn't be just J, would it?

F may or may not provide a good motion for someone newer to baseball, but over time this would likely get canceled out by practice, and a much larger effect would come from how well someone can control their swing or tell what is wrong with it. (Which seems more of an Se/T function type of thing.) With discipline, any function seems that it could do the job, depending on motivation (Similarly to how different types of motivitaion allow for practice/discipline outside of baseball.)
