I'd really like to have more positions to choose from. I mean, okay, there are only the nine, but I'd really like to be able to assign and sort by the following as well:
OF - general outfielders (which you can do on some screens, but it'd be nice to just classify backup OFers as OF in general).
IF - for a general IF position (really only 2B/3B/SS because 1B is kind of its own thing)
MI - if you really want to differentiate your 2B/SS from your guys who also fill in at 3rd
13 - Corner IFer
2O - I see a lot of guys in the game who can play some 2nd and some OF
1O - 1B/OF, for those fat guys who can just barely play the field but you don't want to call a DH In 1927.
C1, C3, CO - because dammit, every now and then I use my backup or 3rd string catcher to also back up a position in the field
As it stands now, when you sort by position it is kind of easy to lose track of a guy you've listed primarily as a 2B but who can also play CF and LF in a pinch for your team.The depth charts help a lot, of course, but what if you're filling in for injury? It'd be easier to review your team if you had sorting mechanisms like this.

Make the shortlists available from the roster menus, possibly as views, and this would be easily handled. Just add your dual-use players to a shortlist named as you desire, then be able to switch to that list from a roster menu.
