As both ATM are used in the draft and arguably considered the worst. I think the recruitment system used in hardwood would be a much better representation of those systems and their IRL counterparts, providing us with a new way to approach team building (and finances) plus giving a boost to international and APS players appeal. I know a few managers already agreed with me on this one and would love to see something like it implemented. (Also another +1 for openers being added because I very much want that still)

I think a recruiting system would be even more burden. If we are ok increasing burden, my vote would be to do a full draft (prioritized draft boards), not recruiting.

Draft for High School, College, and North American pools. A posting system of bidding for Asian and International pools. If that’s too burdensome a person could just avoid those pools, which most probably do anyway. A system like this exists already in Hardwood. It might not be too difficult to incorporate into Broken Bat.
