Some stuff that I’ve tested that’s worked well:
- Rookie League in September, right after the minor league post season. Set an age limit of 22/23 and basically run ur new draft picks and young guys in A-ball to get some extra reps. Also gives something to do during the post season for non-playoff teams
- Turning off IFA but expanding the draft and the number of teams in college and high school. Still need to test how the league talent level develops over time doe, but the first couple of draft classes were solid
- locking in local and national media contracts for the next 100 seasons. Don’t know if that’s always been there but I don’t remember that feature. But that makes it way easier to stabilize budgets
Good news is all this can be added to either a new or existing league
