1. Replace Total Average with wOBA
I haven't seen TAVG ever used on any common baseball stats website, whereas wOBA has quickly risen to the top of "comprehensive" rate statistics. wOBA would give OOTP 11 the best rate stat available.

2. Replace ERC (Component ERA) with FIP (Fielding Independent Pitching)
The DIPS concept has been in OOTP since 6.5(?). Yet we've never had a statistic that calculates it. ERC includes a H/9 component which DIPS/FIP ignore as an inaccurate way to measure a pitcher's performance. FIP is easy to calculate and comes in the same format as ERC and ERA.

3. Include a quantified fielding runs stat. Whether this be UZR, Total Zone, etc.
I would like to know how well my players do on a scale relative to runs. It's been long established that RF/9 and the other included fielding stats in OOTP are poor indicators of a fielder's performance.
