I'm not trying to wade into a philosophical debate about the relative merits of contact vs. power in real life baseball. Certainly, players of both varieties have left their mark on the game throughout history. So I strongly believe that both types of players should be viable options in PT.
It's just a matter of balancing the game properly. If one side is too obviously strong there's no tradeoff to consider, no interesting decision to make. Just take the contact & range every time. It's boring.
