A short, constructive wishlist

Hello Markus, thank you for your hard work making this game! Been playing since 16.

I have a brief, hopefully constructive list of small changes to make to the game to improve it:

1. Draft history is kind of all over the place. There should be a checkbox to fully save draft logs as a sortable table, just like any other list in the game. That way I can go back to a draft and sort by various stats/ratings to see who was drafting well!

2. Include foreign leagues that have been removed from the game using a generic template, this can be a separate section of the league creation screen. So like "Baseball League of Cuba" and then you add it and it's totally bogus in terms of names, but the quality of players is similar. Obviously, this probably doesn't work for japan. But would be nice for the others.

3. Boost the quality of negro leagues players!!! They were much better than their ratings suggest. Even Josh Gibson is merely an above average quality player in the game by MLB standards, he should be a straight 80/80.

4. Maybe have some simple built-in SQL functionality to let us build custom historical leaderboards. This might be challenging depending on the backend of the user interface. but something like, allowing me to tell the computer to find me who has the highest fielding percentage of any 2nd baseman who has played for Boston in 10 years. That sort of thing.

Rookie Draft>Draft History

Top right corner you can select whatever year you want, use whatever views or filters you have, and sort to your hearts content.

The only players missing from the list are those that weren't signed. So my last draft listing on this page is 569 players while 600 were drafted.

If you have your league set to delete players that never make it to The Show, those players will not be in this table since they are no longer in your game.

So a couple of limitations but other than that I think it does what you want?
