Average exit velocity and launch angle

Would love to see average exit velocity and launch angle added as stats. They are two of the most indicative stats of how well a guy is hitting the ball and if he's potentially over/underperforming.

In Short PbP mode, it shows the exit velocity of each ball, so exit velocity at least already exists somewhere in the back end.

The exit velocity you see is just for flavor. The game engine provides hits and outs based on ratings. There is no physics involved.
