One of the elements, I think, we're really missing in the commentary is the occasional - I wouldn't mind seeing it very frequently, if it were me - wrap up of player performance in the game thus far, aside from the "he's gone 1 for 4 today with a walk."

I like the idea of including a more expanded look at that performance, e.g. "Benson's walked once today, grounded out twice, and hit a deep one to right that would have cleared the wall if not for Davidson's outstanding leap." I know that's a bit ambitious, but if we're going to focus on improvement, let's focus on expanding what works well already in a text sim: the text.
Agree with you, endgame. This would be great to have in the game, but like you say, it is quite ambitious. But we can try and see what we can do.
