Id like to see:

1) More in diverse scouting. Maybe compare the player to a current player or old player. If my scout thinks hes going to be the next Roger Clemens or Alex Rodriguez tell me that. Add scouting on injury proness. Like there could be a godly prospect in the draft, but some teams avoid him bc he has arm trouble history or gets hurt alot. Theres alot you can do with scouting that hasnt been touched yet...but bigger and more detailed reports top my list.

2) Id like to see performance points added. Much like "MY PLAYER" mode for Nba2k10, where a player earns a certain amount of points for the way he has played throughout the season that can boost batting average or power. So if he played well, in the offseason he has the option to not increase points...but to buy an offseason weght coach or something to that degree which would increase the likely hood of him gaining power.

3) In that light a MY PLAYER mode would be nice. Where we start as a touted prospect. We create our player, position. drafted by a team, and the mode follows you to the pros. This hasnt been done yet for a baseball sim and i think the stats in this game would take advantage of soemthing like this.

4) GM pics of suits. Since i oversee all of baseball operations like Brian Cashman, i want to look the part. Please let me wear a suit in my picture. I cant imagine Brian Cashman the GM for the Yankees walking around the office in a yankees hat and jersey.

5) I know its cheating but when i play my own franchise and get frustrated with a deteriorating players contract, i cant help but go to options be the league GM and change his contract stats and potential etc etc. Maybe install a feature that lets me set up my league, edit my players, then turn off some features that allow me to change player potential or edit players abilities and contracts so I am not tempted to do so. If i dont have the option, I wont want to do it.
