Suggestion
Allow the user to select what type of qualification level they want to use for determining what constitutes a rookie player.
Reason
Currently, the majors use a threshold of 130 AB, 50 IP, or 45 days on a roster prior to Sept. 1st. But before 1971, a different threshold was used: 90 AB and 45 IP (the number of days on a roster was the same). So, to reflect these kinds of real-world variations, it would be nice if for each league the qualifications as to what constitutes a rookie could be set.
Priority
Low.
The Proposal in Detail
For setting the rookie qualification levels for a given league, there would be an "At Bats" setting, an "Innings Pitched" setting, and a "Previous days on a roster before late-season roster expansion" setting. For each you'd just enter the desired number.
There'd also be the option to use either just the statistical numbers alone, the roster days number alone, or use both the stats and roster days numbers together.
