Franchise Hall of Fame makes no sense
-
Self-Explanatory title. I watch people get into the hall with incredible accomplishments at the end of their careers and watch even more players with equal or better accomplishments not get in. My closer just retired with 619 saves which puts him at second all time and didn't get in? Aaron Judge hit 640 home runs and didn't get in? My 18-year-old phenom rookie eventually retires with 3,300 hits, 500 home runs, a lifetime .300 batting average but only made the All-Star team one time with no other impressive hardware and doesn't get in? Whatever algorithm this game has for little things like this is terrible and it needs incredible reworking.
PS. Don't even get me started on the inability to track lifetime achievements and accomplishments. I can't see statistics beyond a couple all-time leaders? I can't track my team's history in previous seasons for the rosters I've had? I can't look at all time lists for hits, wins, war? Every other sports game does this. Get it together.

I think they also need to provide commentary for more big milestones. For example, I hit Ohtani’s 40th home-run of the season to join the 40-50 club in franchise mode, and the commentators didn’t even mention that. No mention of him joining a 40-40 club that only had five players in it entering this season. You’d think they could mention it and show a list of the players, maybe even along with their teams and the years they did it. If it’s done at home, I believe a curtain call would even be appropriate.
