And outfielders can be involved in double plays but there is no category for them.

The drawback right now is that the league leader page is really slow loading because the computation for those tables is done dynamically. To a similar extent, if I added some league leaders to the league page, it would suffer as well. So it will require a little bit of restructuring before it becomes practical. 2. I have considered adding either streak or record over the last 10 game. Which do you think is better? I'm partial to the later. It would take a little work, but is quite doable. 3. I could add double plays to the statistics page and totals. Right now the statistics width is starting to outgrow the page – I need to adjust the font size. Have also considered adding DPs to the box score. In terms of the outfielder double plays, it's not possible with the current game engine (a is a rare event in real baseball). However, there are outfield assists, which are essentially runners thrown out from the outfield. Steve

Thanks for the explanations as to why some of these ideas are difficult to implement. The DP statistic is not that important. I was just trying to think of ideas to help gauge a team's defensive prowess. If you are going to add anything more to the individual statistics I would suggest fielding percentage, and then perhaps we could see some gold glove awards.
