Too many HR's in 2k7?... perfect amount for me...

[Kotter]

I appologize if this would be more appropriate in the sliders column, cause I bet I will be urged to share my sliders, but I played all 162 games with my Cubs franchise (before I got the postseason bug, ugh) and I experienced a perfect amount of HR's. Here are my end of the season individual stats, sorted by HR's:

(stats are represented by: Games - Avg - HR - RBI
Jacque Jones 157 -.324 - 35 - 94
Aramis Ramirez 155 - .291 - 31 - 81
Derrek Lee 155 - .315 - 25 - 89
Alfonso Soriano 91 - .321 - 23 - 55 (injured for a couple months)
Cliff Floyd 124 - .315 - 22 - 58
Michael Barrett 137 - .289 - 21 - 84
Mark DeRosa 143 - .272 - 14 - 58
Ryan Theriot 110 - .253 - 10 - 35
Daryle Ward 106 - .364 - 8 - 27
Myself 121 - .223 - 6 - 32
Toby Hall 55 - .245 - 4 - 16

and so on...

With my sliders and the way I played the game (never used the power swing) I feel got great results and this ended up being a very enjoyable baseball experience for me. I was REALLY bummed out by the postseason bug, but I thoroughly enjoyed the summer up until that point (eh, it was time for football season anyway)

Any thoughts?

Power swing for me just felt natural, and there were way too many HRs. I love the cubbies but that is just way too many HRs from JJ. I am very excited for this upcoming year, and I hope to see balanced stats

if you have the power swing at 0, will you still hit alot of homeruns if you use the power swing? or will it act like a normal swing?
