More awards : world series and lcs MVP. Plus another change that just popped into my head. If I want to see who won a particular award in a particular year I could easily find that. But what if I want to see the history of all the CY young winners or world series mvps? That would take a while. Add a new awards page listing that history. Just put a drop down box on the page to select an award then post all the players who won on one neat page.

Example, sort by NL MVP.
Season 1 _ john Johnson
Season 2 _ Roger Rogers
Season 3 _ Jack Jackson
Etc.....
Very similar to a previous suggestion that I had made, but cannot find in the "Suggestions Forum".

I'd like to see a "World History" page where one can see, in one place, a grid with a row for each year listing the World Series participants (teams and owner), and the various award winners.

Also, a "Current Owners" page which would list all 32 owners, their team in the world, number of seasons the owner has been with that team in the world, the W/L record for the owners (world and overall), and the number of WS titles for each owner (world and overall).  This could give you a quick overview of longevity and stability of world owners, which could be a reflection of the world itself.

I'll say this about DITR announcements.    1.  I like getting them even when my players are crap.   Gives me an "event" to look forward to.  Like Christmas when you get a potatoe instead of a toy.    2.   What minor league coach wouldn't call everyone in the organization to say "LOOK WHAT I'VE DONE WITH THIS KID?!?!??!!?"

Is he related to Dan QUAYLE?


FWIW, it's pretty much recognized that it can be spelled either way.

Why is my next starter given the ball on an off day.  I am trying to use the off day to evaluate how well my #1 rebounds from his last outing.  Please allow me to change starters until the cycle of the game.

The former Vice President's name is spelled Quayle.

Mike, I think the "e" is used only for the plural, as in "potatoes" or "tomatoes".

Another EXCELLENT suggestion by you tec, love it.

Here's another one that I've posted before. The ability to set an 'A' lineup. I play all my starters vs teams above 500 and always rest a guy or 2 vs teams under 500. Sometimes I will sub in wholesale lineup changes for one game, with guys playing secondary positions, batting higher in the order than usual, and I will have 4 or 5 bench guys starting the one game. Then the next game I play my division rival and I want to reset my lineup and use my 'A' team. It might take a while to do that especially since I often use my cell phone if I'm at work or away from home. It would be sweet if I could press one button and magically the lineup resets so all the regulars are starting and in their normal batting order slots and defensive positions.

Also, some kind of easier way to track player's major milestones (500 HR, 3000 Hits, 200 wins, etc, etc) would be nice.

I think its a necessary evil. The opponent deserves to know who they are facing up against. You could add in multiple placeholder days between each game but that extends the season. Even if you only change it for the playoffs it still adds an extra 7-10 real life days to the season.
