I like Potato Peeler's idea with the game dynamically updating stats to your schedule rather than 162.

I also like injury log's post about updating the way the game handles injuries

but...

If I had to rank them updating the pitching model, if possible, would be number 1. Give ratings for the type of pitches thrown and throw out endurance. Enhance the AI so that it knows a guy with three good pitches (65+ on the 20-80 scale) should be a starter and those without can be started, but would probably do better in a relief role. Often relief will also add a mile or two to a pitchers fastball because he can air it out, rather than trying to pace himself over 6-8 sometimes 9 innings.
