They should just be from oldest to newest and lowest class to highest in either direction. I just don't like the most recent in the middle as they were, that's counterintuitive to me.

Before you would have something like this: 2022 AAA...... 2023 AAA...... 2022 AA....... Which meant if you wanted to see the most current stats for the above player you had to read the middle line. Counterintuitive if you ask me. But like I said, bottom line or top line are fine with me, I would just prefer it be one of those, not a middle line. Currently Steve set it up the former way which was my suggestion. If he wants to switch to yours I'm good with that, I just don't want it going back to what it was a couple days ago. I think we've made small but nice progress here.

Your majors would look like this: 2020 ... 2021 ... 2022 ... While your minors would look like this: 2022 A ... 2021 A ... 2021 Rookie ... 2020 Rookie ... Tops shows the most recent stats at the bottom, and ESPN does as well. Since most baseball statistic are shown top to bottom, it only makes sense that BrokenBat would show them the same way. BTW, MiLB also shows the minors stats in this format. Updated Monday, July 6 2015 @ 2:22:30 pm PDT

The question of ordering for the league is somewhat trickier...but since most players progress up through the minor leagues, we should probably order lowest league at top (oldest) and highest league on the bottom (newest). I think the other order made more sense when there was just one season of statistics. But now, I think it makes sense this way. I see that MiLB does it one way. Baseball America does it the other way. Steve
