Suggestion

Add the abililty to mimic some of the trading rules used in past years. For example, trades between the AL and NL were restricted. A player had to clear waivers inside his own league before he could be sent to the other league even before the trade deadline, and during the off-season as well. This meant relatively few players moved between the leagues.

Reason

It makes historical leagues more accurate and it gives fictional leagues more flexibilty in how they are set up. It also adds more challenge to the player; if you can't trade between your leagues easily, that obviously makes it harder to be a good GM.

Priority

High, in my opinion. I have a series of these sorts of "prior major league rules" suggestions, and since they add more historical accuracy as well as more variety to how fictional leagues can be set up, I'm a strong proponent of these suggestions. (Others will, most likely, disagree with my priority ranking and probably only rate them a medium.)
