Have an option to be able to give the minor league teams each a different name. Having six teams call one ballpark home is a stretch already... then having six teams with the exact same name? Very unlikely.

A pinch-running hierarchy may also be useful. I dont really know how that's done now.

Just an FYI a_ersberg:

Each of your minor league teams has a different ball park. They do not all share 1, and each has different dimensions.

The ability to quickly set my "A-Lineup." For example, I am the type who plays my best players vs top teams and teams in my division, and I use the games vs horrible teams as the games I rest my stars. I might have 2 or 3 guys benched/resting vs a last place team and then the very next game vs a first place team I want those guys back in. If I could set my "A-lineup" in spring training and save it, and then anytime I want to use that lineup for the next game, I could click one button that would default the lineup back.

Drag-and-drop lineups would be a dream. Hire the guy who programmed fantasy sports on Yahoo to do the programming for HBD.

How about separate drop-down menu tab for spring training "player settings" and "manager settings" allowing you to keep settings for regular season and spring training separate. Maybe even for management console settings.

Not sure how everyone else does it, but changing setting before and after spring training takes too long. Maybe there is a shorter way someone could let me know about?

A column in the standings for each opponents record vs me, saving me time having to go to the schedule and count up the wins and losses if I'm trying to figure out a tie breaker. Even better yet, a grid like this

The ability to see the pitching matchup in minor league games.

Updated with all the latest. Thanks for the suggestions and keep'em rolling in. There's a ton on the list I'd certainly love to see that seem like they'd be low-hanging fruit for dev.

Incorporating this into a larger suggestion, how about an "Upcoming Pitching Matchups" page that showed the "expected" next 3 or 5 days' starting pitching matchups, based on the current rotation setup, with only the next day's being "locked in". If this included a drop down menu to switch levels, it would have the added benefit of allowing you to see pitching matchups at minor league levels.

I'd love to be able to easily see when my rival's Ace is throwing, or to skim the Box Scores of Cy Young candidates, etc.

More suggestions:

1) Have a page that shows world history for all previous seasons on one page: World Series winners/losers with owner ID and payroll; MVP, CY and ROY winners for each league.

2) Have a "Today's Scheduled Games" page which shows all games and pitching matchups (with both team and starting pitcher W/L records) for the next game cycle.

3) Have a "Yesterday's Games" page that has the linescore, winning/losing pitcher (with their W/L record), save, and home runs listed for each game.

4) On the schedule page for games already played, have extra-inning games noted with number of innings played.

5) Allow for Public Worlds to become Private Worlds provided they meet some specified criteria.

Basically you want a newspaper page and an almanac, great ideas. I'll add these after I get some work done.

This is a minor one, but would save me some time, and i am sure some others time as well. When you "Offer Demands" on minor league FA's, they do not show on your FA Target's page and you have to add them manually. Having them show up automatically would be great.

Guys, I wanted to jump in here and say that this is a great thread and I have been following it for awhile.

Keep up the good work and we'll be reviewing all of these suggestions to see where they can fit.

Thanks again!!

Amend the HBD forums to more closely reflect the dedicated GD world threads.

WORLD "BASEBALL": Season ??

Each rollover, this one thread is bumped to recruit new members. Perhaps you give private world commissioners permission to edit the title to add the number of teams available.

This consolidates all world information in one spot. As it stands now, you have to do research to find out how many open teams a world has each season, what the character of the league is like and what the balance of competition has been.

The point behind this suggestion is to improve, and make more transparent, the overall health and stability of a world in the Classified section.
