Three suggestions:

1. Minor league platoon splits - there's nothing worse than thinking you have a quality guy at AAA, calling him up, and watching him post a .400 OPS against one side. If the data was available beforehand, at least we'd have a fuller idea of the quality of a prospect.

2. The ability, in spring training, to work on improving platoon splits. This shouldn't be easy (perhaps on the level of learning a new position, which requires 10 points), and the effects shouldn't be immediately dramatic, but it should be something we can at least try to do.

3. The ability to have a player improve his fielding percentage, not just his range. I don't know if this would have to be a separate section on the spring training screen, or if the two could be linked, but having an A range with a .930 % just means that the guy gets to make more errors.
