Simulates every possible batting order for a given lineup and displays summary statistics of the average runs (over a number of games) of the orders, and specific information about the top and bottom 5 orders. The user may choose how many games each order is simulated for, which players are in the lineup, or what each player's PA outcomes are in a single game (see sample files).
- Determine the accurate likelihoods of sacrifices and double plays for different out types
- Enable some sort of pinch hitting scheme (right now, each player hits the entire game)
- Enable some sort of pitcher dependent hitting results (even as simple as right-y/left-y; right now hitting stats are full season aggregates)
- Include edge cases like stealing, wild pitches, etc.
- More detailed data (i.e. did a double go to right or left field?)
- Player specific data (i.e. how often does a player try to steal?)
