When do you use the power swing?

What's up fellas, this is my first MLB game since the last MVP game, just trying to get used to the swing mechanics. I was just wondering, when do you guys use the power swing, if at all?

I use it with middle of the lineup guys when I'm ahead in the count (2-0; 3-1 mostly).

Re: When do you use the power swing?

I usually take the first pitch so I get the power button ready in case it's down the middle. Apart from that, only when ahead in the count, and only with power hitters. In my fantasy draft franchise, I have people like Ichiro, Fowler, Ellsbury, Ojeda...I'd never power swing with them.

When I have a slugger at the plate and head on the count.
