A Deeper Spring Training

Suggestion
Make Spring Training altogether a deeper experience, with activities starting earlier than the start of exhibition games, with non-roster invitees, coaches and scouts reporting on the physique of players just arriving in camp and on their level of intensity at workouts, with intra-squad games before exhibition games start, with split squad exhibition games, having feeder leagues, why not have exhibition games with college teams?,

Reason
I find it that the exhibition games alone are not enough to make Spring Training an exciting part of the season. I think Spring Training can be one of the most enjoyable times of the season, I can easily take longer with that 2-month period than I do with 4 or maybe even the whole of the regular season, the regular season is more like just simming to me. Please make Spring Training a much much deeper part of the season and you will make me enjoy it a lot more.
I like the way they did it in NHL Eastside Hockey Manager, but it has to be much better than that! Spring Training is much more important in baseball than in any other sport.

Priority
High
