Okay, I already made quite a few changes regarding batters and their stances on this game compared to that of their real life counterparts. Unfortunately, I did not create a list. So, I'm going to spend the next hour just trying to remember who in the hell I changed into what. I didn't do any pitchers though... so if you guys have anything new to add, fire away.

were there a lot you had to change?

Re: Correct batting stances/pitchers windups

Almost done with the list. Right now it seems to be a head count of 55 players.

Of course... this is without viewing these players. This is just trying to remember. And I don't have everybody... there are a lot of people that need changing (two coming to mind are Corey Patterson and Paul LoDuca; I just forget what they bat like exactly), and you may find one better than mine. Please post/revise any that aren't good enough in your opinion and post them here.

Re: Correct batting stances/pitchers windups

If they have FrankThomas batting stance that looks a lot like Lance N. on the Giants!

I don't appreciate that stance for him much myself, but I wanted to rid a lot of the "Generics".

Re: Correct batting stances/pitchers windups

BUMP

Can anyone else approve of any of these?

Re: Correct batting stances/pitchers windups

javy lopez has his own batting stance in the game and it is correct. No need to change it to omar vizquel.

Okay. I saw it, and I figured that he doesn't go quite upright like that. Near, but whatever.

Re: Correct batting stances/pitchers windups

So... that's it? They're all good?

Sounds great! I'll keep these ones then!
