Custom team using legends

[buggs1a]

Could someone please give me some tips for how to create a team of legends for franchise? I want to replace everyone with legends. All the MLB and some would go to the minors. But I'm not sure of a good way to do this.

I know I'll get most players out of options or something when the season starts which is stupid. They all go on waivers and can be picked up by other teams. That doesn't happen. But what happens is they all are sent to the minors. Then I have to re do my team.

Could someone please help?

What I try to do is just go into the edit team or create team screen. I forget the exact name. Then I'll go to player movement and get rid of everyone by replacing them with legends. this is extremely time consuming. After awhile I'll go back a screen and auto fix roster. I do this to try to wind things down and get a base team to start with line ups and stuff still tweaking what players I want on my team and where. However when I have tried this two times, after I did auto fix I lost players. They disappeared completely. This is a major bug. Doing this whole thing manually without auto fix is near impossible because it takes such a long time and sometimes I have a hard time choosing who to bat where etc.

So I would be so grateful for some tips and suggestions. Please oh please

I haven't noticed a bug with losing players..take the current roster and go into roster control. Click on player movement like you have and trade players from the legend pools to the teams you want. Then go to roster management and that is where you can import or export players, send guys up or down, adjust your rotations and lineups. I would also recommend downloading a legends roster from the roster vault and see if that is a good base for you.

Also, once you have your roster set, if you plan on using in franchise, I wouldn't bother with the lineups because once in franchise you will have to do that again once the regular season starts. Edit your 40 man down to 26 on last day of spring training. Then your lineups should hold when you advance to regular season

Very time consuming. I'm working on my own all time teams roster adding in more legends like Bonds, McGwire, Sosa, Clemens, Jeter, etc. Once I have everything finalized, I will upload to vault. I try to mix in current players with legends and prospects. Pretty decent for top 40 on each team. I just have 1 team left in AL and then I'm going to work on NL

Thanks.
How do I deal with 40 man? So I just remove from 40 man players? Why? I don't know much about the 40 man.

And why does the game put all legends on waivers when the season starts? That messes up my rosters and line ups etc too.

Im just confused. Sorry.

There are topics on setting up 30 team control in franchise and how to get your lineups to hold. A quick search thru these forums will help you as well as YouTube tutorials. It will be a while before I test my roster in 20. I do 30 team control and manually edit each team at the end of spring training. You have to edit all teams down to 26 from 40 then advance to regular season

Re: Custom team using legends

I'm having a problem with players disappearing in my roster file as well.. players are disappearing, but when I search with player search I can see the player with a W next to his name.. When I go back to the actual roster, they are not there though. Anyone have any fix?

I noticed some of my pitchers dissappearing but I think it is tied to the MLB rules. So if I have more than 13 pitchers, they dissappear. Not positive but it has worked for me
