Having the actual names was a step in the right direction. But why should we be subjected to messing around and spending way too much time trying to figure out who the hell we have on our team?

It has been suggested that its fun to see which rook lives up to their potential, based on ratings (which suck IMO)...When in reality world we don't even know if the MLB players we drafted will live up to their potential and we know their stats.

If you, the customer, could decide this issue how would you handle it?

1. Real names, real stats?
2. Fake names, real stats?
3. Fake names with nonsense ratings?
4. Completely fake players using randomly generated stats?
5. The ability to draft up to 40 players (like real baseball) and you decide who goes to the farm?
