I like these scenarios a lot. For my money, the most interesting would be "What if baseball had been integrated from the start?" or "What if baseball has integrated the Negro Leagues?" Including a database with the segregated players/teams that could be used with the standard historical database would be very cool. A good deal of this work seems to have been done. [I can say unequivocally that seeing this advertised would automatically convince me to purchase.]
I also really like the concept - there is a Dynasty to this effect - "What if the high Minors had become Independent Major Leagues?" I think there is enough info to create reasonable databases for AA or PCL back to the early 20th century (for someone who works much less than I do, anyway.)
Another thing that would be neat, but would probably take some development, is really accurate historical park factors. I'd love to know how the 63-67 Dodgers would have fared at Ebbets, for example.
