It's interesting how the game seems to have ventured into analytics with BABIP and then shifted focus towards catchy features like the Development Lab and the Scouting Combine. While these additions enhance the gameplay experience and player progression, there's a sense that the leap to incorporate more in-depth metrics like Statcast data might have been momentarily sidestepped.
The prospect of integrating Statcast into OOTP holds immense potential for enriching player evaluation and strategic decision-making, aligning the game more closely with the cutting-edge analytics used in modern baseball.
Considering the game's current trajectory, how do you envision a balance between advanced analytics like Statcast and engaging features such as the Development Lab and Scouting Combine within OOTP's framework?

I am open to adding anything to the game. I don't complain about features I don't care about. My question is, are you ready for all the criticism the feature will receive before everyone thinks it's good enough? Look at the scouting lab. Like I said, go ahead and add it. But I know I have seen way too many posts regarding the scouting combine, which makes me want to stay away from these forums.
