Re: I thought the trade logic was fixed?

Anyone know if there is anyway to turn on 30 team control or disable trades after the franchise is already started?

I believe there is no way to turn alter these options once you've started.

Joe Mauer was traded in my franchise as well.

Twins Get:

SP Jameson Taillon (Top 50 Prospect) Age: 22 Potential: A Overall: 79
SP Tyler Glasnow Age: 20 Potential: A Overall: 64

Pirates Get:

1B Joe Mauer

I could be fine with a trade like that IF the Twins or out of contention and the Pirates are making a Playoff Push. Mauer for a RP is just absurd though. I don't know how anyone can make sense out of that one. Question for you baseball historians out there - Has there ever been a All Star caliber player traded for a single RP midseason??

The Twins are 14 games out of first and the Pirates are 5 games back of first.

If I'm using the Twins, I'm accepting that trade then. Reluctantly, of course, but it's it isn't called rebuilding for nothing.

But if you do 30 team control don't you have to offer the CPU trades? Do they make them own their own?

And I am playing RTTS right now and that is something you can't do in that mode.

30 team control is a misnomer. It just ALLOWS you the option to step in. If you set one profile up with everything auto and use that for the other 29 teams, it is the exact same thing as single team control.

You can turn trades off and on at any time, by turning trades from auto to manual.

It's not the exact same thing as single team control. U have to sim every CPU game each day to get working out of town scoreboards and tickers, not to mention all the email alerts for the CPU teams. Prior to each game u have to move your controller to "your" team cause the mode thinks every team is your team.... They are all little things but bothersome enough . I would really like a true single team franchise with commissioner trade control, or the ability to tune the frequency of CPU trades during the season

I have those things on a wishlist to forward for 30 team control. Knight and I have discussed check boxes for games to play so others would be simmed, and a toggle for email alerts.

Re: I thought the trade logic was fixed?

Now for those who comment that it is incredibly hard to make a realistic trade AI (which I understand), then how does a game like OOTP get trade AI as close to realistic as possible?

I remember playing that game and seeing very realistic trades being done between AI-controlled teams, and the AI rejecting unfair trades that I offer. I never saw any insanely unrealistic trades like Mauer for one B-rated RP, or Buxton and Sano traded for a couple journeymen pitchers, when the Twins are not even in contention.
