This is in regards to those who complain about All-Star/MVP selections.

I suggest rather than just going the route of AI/human choices to instead assign points. The player with the most points is considered the starter or MVP.

The idea being something like

Batting avg: for each .010 above .275: 5 points
HR: 1 point for each
RBI: 1 point for each
GWRBI: 5 points for each
Strikout: -1 point
etc

Have the ability to edit the point based on each person choosing and also allow editing for position (for example you probably don't want batting stats considered for choosing pitching, or you want to include Double Plays made for outfielders but not for infielders)

This would be a better way than just having the AI or user choose.

For MVP voting you would need a way to even out the stats, but for All-Star it be a very good system.
