Year-to-Year Saves bugs

Re: Year-to-Year Saves bugs

It has everything to do with licenses aka approvals. If a player appeared in 2014, but doesn’t appear in 2015 it’s because the player isn’t approved. Zito played in 2013, but semi-retired in 2014 and didn’t play. He decided to make a comeback in 2015, but isn’t on the disc for 2015 because he wasn’t approved due to the fact that he didn’t play in 2014. The list below are players that played in 2013, but not in 2014 and that’s why they weren't approved. Those players on that list who did play in 2014 didn't make the disc because they actually retired. The MLBPA says that if we have approval for a player and they retire, they are now not approved. Hope this clears things up.

Thanks Ramone.

But what about players like Alfredo Aceves? He played in 2014 and signed in minor league contract with SF for 15.

I get what you're saying, although I don't see the list you mentioned.

So at no point will we be able to carry over a Y2Y save and have players like Medlen in the game because they aren't on the disc?

Re: Year-to-Year Saves bugs

I'm not at my game to check....but there could be a bug in Y2Y saves with SCEA players that were on the Single A level when carrying over and being replaced.
Can someone try this and check.

That actually sounds like a pretty plausible explanation! Good idea, Knight.

I won't be home for a few hours but if no one has checked by then, I'd be glad to.

Re: Year-to-Year Saves bugs

Its kinda of a deal, but I move on. I tried to match some of the players with their stat line from 14' and also career stat line. I still have my 14' The Show disc. I found some players that, but some of the players last name isn't in the database. Like Medlen...

Hey Knight, could you clarify your potential theory for me?

When you say single-A, are you asking if guys like Medlen were in single-A in 14? And do you mean in single-A at the time of the transfer, or how SCEA had them stocked?

Because I am 100% positive my players were actively on my MLB roster at the time of my transfer. But I can't recall whether any of them were originally on single-A before I manually promoted them. That I would have to check on.

Could you elaborate what I should look for (if I have the time) later?

Can you talk a little about players who misssed the entire 2014 season due to injury. Some who spent the whole year on the DL are in the game, players like Matt Harvey, Jurickson Profar, Patrick Corbin, and others.

Then others who seem to be no different than the above listed players, players like Kris Medlen, Brandon Beachy, Josh Johnson, Luke Hochevar and others are not.

One of the guys doing a RTTS carry over noted that Harvey was missing......he had him in single a injured.......I told him to try and put him on the MLB level and see if he was still replaced...he said he was there that next time.
Made me think that rel players in single a might be getting replaced.
Just a thought .

What about the players that accumulated service time while injured and on a 40 man roster the entire season? (When I say injured I mean out for the season).

Brandon Beachy
Tim Beckham
Kris Medlen
Josh Johnson
Cory Luebke
Shawn Kelly
Luke Hochaver
And many others
ALL were injured in Spring training last year and were on the DL the entire season while on their teams 40 man roster. All accumulated service time.

Matt Harvey
Jurickson Profar
Jarrod Parker
and other missed all of 2014 and are still in MLB 15 so that is where I am lost I guess.

Arod was on the restricted list and is still in MLB 15.

Franklin Gutierrez is not in was on Seattle's restricted list last season. (Entire season and on the 40 man)

I know why Zito isn't in as you explained. I also figured out why Bundy isn't in either (he came off the DL last season and played 9 minor league games without being called up).

What about Tommy Pham and Sam Tivailala of the Cardinals? Pham has 0.021 days of service time(Played in 14) and he isn't in MLB 15 for some reason.

Joey Butler of the Rays played in 4 games last season with the Cardinals before going to Japan. Any reason why he isn't in MLB 15?

I do understand the rules and guidelines you guys have to follow in terms of approvals, but I don't understand why certain guys are approved and others weren't when they all had the same issue last season. IE THE injured players on 40 man rosters.

Yes, everybody who was in 14 and injured, but not in 15 because they were not approved are on that list. Guys who missed the whole year (2014) like Medlen, Beachy, Luebke, etc. were not approved for 15. Others like Harvey, Profar, Parker played at the beginning of 14, so they had some service time that year and were eligible to be approved…and they were.

Tommy Pham and Sam Tuivailala were not approved because they didn’t signed their CAA (player agreement) this year. They were approved last season though because they did sign their CAA during that time.

Players who sign with another country to play baseball is automatically not approved even if they have been approved before. For example, Hiroki Kuroda was approved for MLB 15, but he went to Japan this year and would need to go back in the approval process if he came back to the states and played.

Parker, Harvey, and Profar didn't play at all last season. Harvey went down at the end of 2013. Profar and Parker both went on the DL in spring training 2014. So did Beachy, Medlen, Beckham etc...... That's why it doesn't make any sense.

Yeah i actually know Tommy Pham and he shot me a text back like 15 minutes ago and said the same thing you did.

Re: Year-to-Year Saves bugs

Hey Ramone,

One bug that I noticed today. I'm in week 3 of the 2021 season with my Mets franchise and every game that I played (12 so far) it begins as if it is opening day. Also, a few of my guys have had over 150 HR's in their career but the graphics and announcers say that it's their "1st career HR", then EK goes into his spiel about hitting his first HR in the 1st game of his career. It's really weird.

Lastly, every game thus the far weather defaults to "clear skies". I know I can change it but would rather it just be randomized.

Thanks for listening and it's great to see guys from the SCEA actually being active in the forums.
