And then with the game generated players, first of all let's get some more realistic variety. You don't see first rounders (or any draft picks) from Wisconsin School for the Deaf or from a public high school of 100 students in Eastern Montana. More respected college and HS programs get more (and higher) draft picks and we see more HSers from California, Texas, FL, etc. instead of ones from states that never produce draft picks (or very very rarely).

Good suggestions.
The first will happen, it's something I discuss regularly with Markus and Andreas. Andreas just needs to find the time to link the schools db to the roster editor. He's going to do it, he just has other stuff that's taking priority.
The second is also something we can do something about, to some extent. We can review the frequency field of the schools db to make sure it matches rl data.
Might be a project for you, if you want, at some point.
I don't necessarily agree about the first rounders not coming from small schools in non-baseball state though.
How about Brandon Nimmo from Wyoming, whose HS didn't even have a baseball team? He's not the only guy like that either, by a long shot.
