I purchased OOTP 17 last week and have been setting up a brand new league. I've simmed from 1980 to 2012, where I'm currently taking over an expansion team. One thing I've noticed is that, compared to previous versions of OOTP, there aren't that many power hitters in the league. There may only be a handful of guys in the league that have a Power rating over 65 (on a scale of 100). In the early years of my league (1980s), there were a good amount of power hitters with Power ratings over 80.

Does anyone know why this might be? I have the league evolution settings for "more/less pitching" and "more/less offense" checked. Might that have impacted this aspect of the game?
