1) Put 2 sub-tabs on the player awards page.  One tab groups by the season, one tab groups by the award.  So instead of seeing

White Sox	croutons	10	ML	NL	All-Star Team
White Sox	croutons	10	ML	NL	Silver Slugger C
Angry Dragons	jimmystick	13	ML	NL	All-Star Team
Angry Dragons	jimmystick	13	ML	NL	Gold Glove C
Angry Dragons	jimmystick	15	ML	NL	All-Star Team
Angry Dragons	jimmystick	15	ML	NL	Silver Slugger C
Angry Dragons	jimmystick	18	ML	NL	All-Star Team
Angry Dragons	jimmystick	18	ML	NL	Silver Slugger C

You could see one tab which would show:

Season 10: All Star, Silver Slugger
Season 13: All Star, Gold Glove
Season 15: All Star, Silver Slugger
Season 18: All Star, Silver Slugger

And a second tab which would show:

All Star: 10, 13, 15, 18
Gold Glove: 13
Silver Slugger: 10, 15, 18

Plus, add the option to see ML awards ONLY.  Easier to read and makes more sense.

2) Additional awards should be added:  Batting Champ, HR champ, Triple Crown, RBI leader, Stolen Base Leader, strikeout leader, Win leader, ERA leader, Saves leader, for each league

3) Add team vs team grid to standings page like this: espn.go.com/mlb/standings/grid

4) SOMETHING needs to be done with HOF voting page.  It's awkward and people rarely vote, possibly because of the awkardness.  No 'submit' button means you have no idea if your votes were saved.  Maybe add a second frame to the page and when a name is clicked his name and picture appear in the second frame so you can see who you've got selected without having to scroll up and down.  Then, add a GIANT SUBMIT button so you are sure your vote was saved. 

5) This might be controversial but it could be really fun too.  Give people an incentive to vote for Hall of Fame and League Awards!  If they vote they'll get 1 or 2 DiTRs appear the next cycle after voting ends.  Of course DiTRs are rarely worth a crap and that's a whole new topic for another day.... but maybe if some people knew there was an outside chance they could randomly get a megastar DiTR they'd be more willing to spend 4 minutes and vote.  In both my worlds I'm seeing phenomenal players being left out of the Hall of Fame with single digit votes.  Only explanation is people aren't voting. 

6) Several years ago I read in a dev chat that people who win the world series might get some kind of extra reward.  Some suggestions were getting their name (or a name of their choosing) added to the player name pool, the ability to edit the name of their stadium, and a few others.  Let's add this in!  Allow the winner of the World Series each season to do one of those things, or create a new coach to add to the pool, including ability to create whatever name and ratings he wants.  Ability to edit the ballpark ratings of a stadium (change a hitter's park into an even bigger hitter's park, or whatever).  Keep the same stadium but change the city, or vice versa of course.  There's probably a few others.  Get the ball rolling on this, I've been waiting years for this to happen and I just won my first WS a few days ago!!  Just to clarify, if the WS winner edited the name or dimensions of his stadium the change only effects his park not EVERYBODY in HBD who has the same ballpark.  

7) Add more citys and ballparks

I'd like to see a bolded # on the stats page designating league leaders for any particular category.

I'll summarrize my suggestions from the "Suggestions" forum:

1)  A new roster transaction to toggle between active and inactive, rather than have to do them in separate transaction.  Click here for more info.

2)  Add a line-item in the player's transaction history to note that the player received a DITR bump.  Click here for more info.

3)  During coach hiring, when searching for available coaches for a particular level, I'd like to see everybody who is looking for a position not only at that level but also below that level.  Click here for more info.

4)  Since we can only get Type D picks for unsigned draftees from rounds 1, 2 and 3, we should be able to separate our risk levels for the first three rounds as opposed to rounds 4 and 5.  Click here for more info.

5)  it would be nice to be able to search for particular posts in World Chat, either by filtering on a specific user, or being able to specify a specific start date/time.  Click here for more info.

6)  Get rid of the $4 credits for last place finishes, and replace them with performanced-based credits.  Click here for more info.

Have player statistical milestones be announced on the main page.  Something like "Terry Davis hit his 600th home run in yesterday's game"

Having a namesake player does sound like geeky fun.   Of course, opening that can of worms would lead people to name their guys Jack Off, Doit Inthebutt, etc, etc. 

If I win a world series I have the right to name a guy Doit Inthebutt. Okay, in all seriousness, I do see your point. Maybe name adds should be approved by Wis before being added. If you can't come up with a name then change your stadium name or ballpark effects instead.

These are all EXCELLENT and I hope Wis adds all of them. What do you think of mine?

I think the rewards (reward points and bragging rights and the virtual trophy) for winning the WS are good enough.  Sorry, but I'd rather see improvements to the game itself way before this.

HBD Live!!!

Or, take "Live" off the Standings page.

I'd never let owners change ballpark effects.    But naming a player after yourself does seem like good, geeky fun.   I wouldn't necessarily prioritize such a thing but it's not the worst thing ever.

Agreed.  I wouldn't mind seeing this, but I see way more pressing issues that need attention sooner.
