[Deft]

One thing I would like to see that would make this less a statistics game and more of a baseball game would have hitter tendencies. Pitchers have pitch types, G/F and velocity ratings to give them depth. Hitter should have strengths and weaknesses, and defenses that can be played to counteract them.

Possible options:
low ball hitter (more successful vs. ground ball pitchers)
fastball hitter (self explanatory)
slow bat (struggle against high velocity guys)

These variable shouldn't be major factors but they would give the current pitch types, and hitter type some reason beyond window dressing and give the game a better baseball feel and maybe make specific pitcher/hitter matchups more important.

Also I would like to see the computer take the team finances and the players contracts into account beyond just making sure they don't go broke in the deal.
