OK, an update.
The following things have been fixed in the meantime:
- FA compensation: There is now a supplemental round in the draft, and the compensation rules follow real life.
- Arbitration: You now submit contract amounts, and the arbitrator decides. If no offer is made, the player becomes a FA. Super-2 players are supported as well. Also, 'normal' potential free agents have to be offered arbitration as well if you want to get a compensation pick, following current MLB rules.
- The AI is now more agressive claiming players from waivers.
- Pitching prospects are valued higher now
- Improved player creation code (more utility players and position ratings make more sense now)
- Improved player development (removed player performance in the calculation if a talent change happens)
- Players are now more likely to test free agency (less extensions = better FA class)
- Improved injuries... more short-term, less long-term (I'll look into the CEI later)
That's it for now... I'll continue to keep you posted on the progress
