Multiple Leagues

I say it every year. Being able to have more than 2 leagues/conference would definitely increase the single player fictional league enjoyment.

1. The ability to make three-team trades.
2. A way to compare two players side-by-side without having to bounce back-and-forth between screens.
3. An ability to set up a strict catcher-pitcher pairing (for instance, my backup catcher would always catch a certain starter rather than simply playing every 4th day or whatever).
4. Take the "shop a player" or the "make this work" feature of trades and expand it. I can put a player from an opposing team into a deal, hit make it work, and get a list of guys they'll trade said player for. I'd like the reverse where I can place a player on my team into a trade, hit make it work, and get a list of any/all players the other team is willing to part with for him.

Those Baseball Savant graphs that show where players rank percentile-wise are awesome. They'd be super helpful.

Catcher-Pitcher pairing is super smart. Would also love to do the same for other position players. E.g. If you have a pitcher with high GB rates, you could put in your better defensive 3B rather than starting your more bat-first one.

This is a little niche, but I'd love to see an API or some other means to automate more aspects of the game. Import/export is great but only takes you so far.

An example: I set up a game this year where I would simulate each day, and each team who won got to claim the highest rated player from the team they beat. Of course, doing this 15 times every day (figuring out which player to transfer, going to edit player, and changing their team) takes a long time.

Would be really cool to be able to do more stuff programmatically where I could run a script that would simulate a day's worth of games, loop through the results, and take actions based on what happened. Could open up the door to a lot more fun thought experiments like this one.

What about a more in-depth trade advisor group in-house? So you have your stats guys who say "We like/dislike this trade for XYZ reason" and then your scouting director says "We like/dislike this trade for XYZ reason." Maybe there's a little more owner/fan influence as well, or some insight/requests from Farm Director or Manager. I just think the idea of putting more barriers up to a trade would make them more like the real thing. I also wonder if there's a way to re-do ownership influence -- you can kind of ignore ownership demands right now as long as you win within 2 or 3 seasons. But pressure at the deadline could be cool.

For hiring personnel, it would be neat to have an "interview process." You pick, say, 7 candidates. You're then given 25 questions/tasks to choose 5 from to give each candidate. Based on the candidates' answers, you move to the next round with your 3 finalists where you get to ask 5 more questions before making your pick.

When playing a game in 3D it would be nice to have an in-game option to save your progress. A few times I've lost my progress because the game froze and I would have to replay the whole game from scratch. For this reason I usually exit the 3D game every three innings, save game, and then resume playing, but it would be nice to be able to do this without exiting the 3D.

I wish coaches played a bigger role

I wish coaches played a bigger and more direct role in the game. I think it would be really cool if you could have coaches that specifically improve certain ratings. For example, power pitcher pitching coaches could improve mph/stuff, patience hitting coaches help improve eye. At all levels of the game so in the lower minor leagues, it can help improve potential before it starts improving the actual rating. Just something I thought would add a new layer of strategy to team building.

The problem with 3 Sub Leagues would be the World Series and would need a fourth Sub League.

Team with the best regular season record of the 3 could get a bye to the World Series.
