#1 - The option to give the "Best Pitcher" award to multiple pitchers in a given year.

The Silver Slugger award already allows me to recognize enough of the best hitters to form a full lineup, #1-#9.

I'd like to be able to do the same for pitchers: recognize enough of the best pitchers to form a full rotation, #1-#5. (With the option to include or exclude relievers, as currently exists with the Cy Young award).

Of course, it makes sense to have the status quo as the default (1 Cy Young winner per league), but maybe if there were some slider or box where I could input some number from 1 to 5 winners?

#2 - A play-in game/play-in series for promotion/relegation leagues.

The idea here is that if you're the top team in the second-tier league, you don't automatically get a spot in the next league up. You have to earn that spot by showing you can beat that last-place team from the top league.

#3 - For fictional leagues, I wish there were a way for me to pre-program when the league expands, what the expansion teams are called, what their logos & ballparks are, etc., when & how pre-existing teams change their names and locations, and so on: e.g. "Team A will be in Boston in 1871, move to Atlanta in 1950."

As it is now, I do all these things piecemeal as I go from one season to the next. However, it would be nice if there were a way for me to set up my league history, and then just have the game make that happen. Set and forget.

#4 - I second AirmenSmith's call for an owner mode.

#5 - It would be interesting to have an umpire effect built into the game: depending on who's the umpire that night, maybe you'll have an ump who's more pitcher-friendly or more hitter-friendly, maybe the ump that night is fairly tolerant of players/managers discussing calls with him - or maybe he has a short fuse and it quick to throw you out of the game, etc etc
