Morale and playoff rosters.

Morale and playoff rosters.

Seems to be what my experience is. I've had guys who played on the 25 throughout the season, but were not on 25 on Sept 1 so they were not playoff eligible for whatever reason.

According to MLB rules it doesn't really matter what happens before 31 August. If a player is on the 40 man at the end of that day, he's eligible for the post season roster.

Since there isn't really a way in The Show to determine the 25 man once rosters expand, I guess the game defaults to 1 Sept to set post season rosters? Maybe a way around this is to demote players back down to the minors before the end of the regular season? I don't know if this would use an option or not?

My other question... can you change rosters between post season series? This is allowed IRL and useful... but it looks like it's not possible in The Show?

It should be a date in the calendar. There are plenty of reasons why you might want your 25 to be different for say a Wild Card game than it was 1 Sept and then different again for an NLDS or WS.

One thing I've found is if you sim your minor league teams games on Aug. 31, then add any player you think you might want in the post season to your MLB roster before you sim to the next day those players will now be playoff eligible. Then on Sept 1st send them back down to the minors. It doesn't help with the injury issue but at least you have your minor league guys available.

It does use an option. I tried doing this so I could manually trim down to 25 before the season ended in hopes it would lock in my playoff roster that way and when I went to demote a guy it prompted me telling me that I would use an option if I did.

Problem is ir doesn't let you use any player on the 40 only the players on the 25 on aug 31.

Re: Morale and playoff rosters.

...Or how about the instances when a team does not have a healthy catcher for their playoff roster and are forced to have another player play out of position!?!?

...Or the teams that only have one catcher on their playoff roster and he plays with little or no energy for the entire playoffs!?!?

These are some issues that I have come across as well...
