Here are my suggestions:

LOW DIFFICULTY:

1. Arrow keys to cycle through coach pages, just as we have for players.

2. Add coaches and GMs to the team history page.

3. Significantly up the default number of International amateurs generated in the MLB quickstart. At least 60, if not 120. (120 is closest to real life). A default league ends up nearly all American after 15 years.

4. After an AI player is traded, automatically remove them from the trading block.

5. Add a button to remove a player from trading block, without having to make them untouchable (this might already exist).
EDIT: This does exist ignore this one.


MEDIUM DIFFICULTY:

1. Significantly up the amount of money amateur draft prospects ask for, and add the hard cap, as exists in real life. Every pick in my hundreds of seasons that has said "slot' has signed well under slot. Only the impossibles and those with fixed demands sign at or over. That's not good. This is my highest priority, it's going to be hard to sell me on a new version without this.

2. Add realistic minor league roster rules (professional service time limits).

3. Make team focus more volatile. A team with a 30% winrate in July should not be still Win Now.

HARD DIFFICULTY:

1. Fix the AI for player-controlled minor leagues. For whatever reason, if a player takes over a team and sets the AI to take care of minors, those teams will struggle to win 25% of their games, without fail. You can feel free to test this, it's pretty easy.

2. Completely overhaul the trade deadline. Each bad team should know that it MUST trade its expiring veteran contracts for PROSPECTS. I can't tell you the number of times I've seen the AI have two bad teams swap expiring veterans, or hold onto expiring veterans. Each team in contention should have a VERY MINIMAL chance of dealing away key starters. Teams in the middle depend on team focus, GM, owner, etc. as usual. This AI logic would only apply in the midseason, not in the offseason. In the offseason it's okay to trade away good players. The trade deadline is the second most unrealistic part of this game, behind the amateur draft.

3. Now, this is less pressing but it would be fun. You know how there's several cool pages for offseason trades? Make those for trade deadline. You know, so have "TOP AVAILABLE PLAYERS" on one page, show the salary and WAR moved per team, etc.

4. Add the option for a midseason Cup, or a cup that takes place once per week.

5. Add more complex automation options for tournaments (Add the top 5 teams from league X, top 2 from league Y).
