This feels like a bare minimum for a sports game in 2026, but especially baseball with the 162 game season and amount of roster flux. It doesn't need to be every week, but the option to start with current rosters/stats/standings at certain points in the year (AS break, Sept callups, etc) would make the experience so much better and immersive.
Also, its small and stupid but not being able to sort players when doing a Fantasy Draft (or in FA) in franchise is insane. I get graphics lacking, but the menus, UI and quality of life features in this game are way behind the graphics by a mile.
