I've played by now hundreds of games of 2k baseball and just wanted to share what I believe is THE BEST slider set you will find. These are designed for a simulation style experience.

Notes
- All edits to this slider set will be found on the original post (directly above in this post).
- I rarely use the left stick when I bat, preferring to using my timing to hit the ball where I want it. However I do find it useful to sometimes use the Up or Down on the Left Stick in certain key situations.
- I use power swing sometimes, especially when I am ahead in the count. Some of the other slider sets you will find have super high User Power because they don't use the power swing (down, up on R stick).
- If you find this too easy offensively, raise the CPU pitch speed.
Please send me your feedback! I've been having awesome games lately and I just want everyone enjoy the game as much as I have been.
