Batted Ball Profiles
Would it be possible for the game to track groundball vs flyball vs line drive percentages for players, both hitters and pitchers. If you play out a game, the game engine is already classifying the batted ball type to determine hit/fielded, XBH vs home run vs single, etc etc, so would the option to display these stats for both hitters and pitchers be an option? Particularly if these can be put in as percentages of balls-in-play for that player. Infield flies would be expressed as a percentage of total fly balls. So if you hit 100 total fly balls on 500 total balls in play, and 10 of those were infield fly balls, you'd have a 20% FB% and a 10% IFFB%.
For example: Eric Hosmer in 2012 hit 53.6% GB, 27.9% FB (with 9.7% of those being IFFB), 18.5% LD. So the report would look something like GB% FB% IFFB% LD% 53.6% 27.9% 9.7% 18.5% Also incredibly useful, swinging strike rates for both hitters and pitchers. How often does the player swing at a ball and fail to make contact with it? How often does a pitcher throw a pitch that the batter swings at and fails to make contact with? Especially in stats-only leagues, these would be very helpful for people trying to help predict who'll strike out more/less.
