Has it been confirmed with the Dev team that trade delay toggle option was removed for 16 and if so why and can/will they patch it back in.

Huge deal for us 30 team franchise guys. That was the number reason I used it.

I don't usually argue too much with retirement logic, but I'll be saving and restarting if I have a high rated player on last year of deal, in their mid 30s.

I guess they got rid of the players dont retire in the middle of a contract thing they introduced a few years back then eh?

This is what makes the Show forum great...people trying to be constructive and find solutions/workarounds or define how exactly a bug/issue occurs.

Great thread, guys.

If you remember back to last year there was a bug with it on. Teams would pull offers and there would only be a few trades all season.

I know they are looking at it, but no promises that they can add it back this year without causing other issues.

His contract expired. They must have logic to allow players to continue playing if their overall ratings etc. Are still above average. I think it is a probability based on age. So at 34 it might be a 30%, 35 40% etc.

I would like to see in the future the probability be almost 0 for a guy still rated that high.

Well. The simple workaround will be if you see a trade you feel is really off, just trade the players back.

Is the draft pool the same as always? Meaning there is a dynamic pool of entries.

You could restart the draft 100 times and get 100 different draft pools. This would lead to some guys never really being "picked" for the draft and causing their age to increase and making the overall draft pool older.

Also, is the glitch still there where if you don't scout and the bars are 100% grey (meaning 0% scouted) it'll show all of their TRUE ratings? Virtually eliminating the need to ever scout a player and you get 100% accuracy on every person in the draft.

Armor, I was actually thinking of applying your Madden CFM trade rules to my 30-team franchise once i start with it haha. Just thinking of how I can translate it to the MLB

Oh....I can think of ways to make that happen. But here is the thing. In the MLB there are tons of trades as opposed to NFL Football. So if your willing to put in the time I can toss a few ideas about generating trades with random numbers and using the proposed trade feature (which was a great addition last season and glad it is still there).

Hence why in my 30 team control franchises I set everything for the CPU profile to auto. I would then review pending trades and approve or disapprove. But we can't do that this year in that regard. So I will just reverse what I think is far too wonky.

For the record, I let most trades go through. It is really for the whacked out "no freaking way that makes sense to me" trade I will reverse.

Yes, that's exactly what I do with my franchise as well. Check pending trades, check where the teams are in the standings, check their depth charts and their prospects as well. I also agree with your simple workaround that you mentioned above.

I also recognize that trades are more frequent in MLB and that is why I only disapprove a small number of trades. However, there are trades that I would like to see more. Around the all-star break and the trade deadline, we'll see teams change their focus to either playoff push or rebuilding. I would like to see the CPU initiate trades for veterans that can help the playoff push and rebuilding teams receiving prospects in return. On the top of my head, in my previous franchises, I remember these types of trades happening but it usually just was one or two. So that's why I mentioned your Madden system as maybe a way we can see more logical and realistic trades around the deadline.

I'm willing to listen to your ideas on this one. I also have a few of my own that I am willing to share. Maybe it's better to have other people deciding on these so called house rules with me cause I'm afraid that I might abuse my power of commisioner without somebody else's opinion. Lol.

I must be blind. I just don't see it. I see injury management, which I set to MLB only. But nothing to turn on or off injuries!

Going to try to do more extensive testing this evening, but I do believe it's similar to prior years in being different each time you start the draft.

However, I do believe they've fixed the issue with 0% scouted players. Based on a couple quick draft tests, there don't seem to be any of those weird completely unscouted players.

I actually made a thread on this if you want to share your findings there.
