    Could be fun to try to come up with 26 man rosters for each team, doing one per team and keeping up with the moves.

    For instance, for my Braves, here’s how I could see things playing out:

    1. Freeman signs with LAD or NYY
    2. Braves trade Michael Harris, Sean Muller, Freddy Tarnock, and Sean Newcomb to A’s for Matt Olson
    3. Braves re-sign Eddie Rosario
    4. Braves trade Ozuna to Dbacks for Bumgarner (bad contract swap)
    5. Braves sign IF Brad Miller and OF Kevin Pillar
    6. Braves send OF Heredia to AAA

    RF Acuna
    2B Albies
    1B Olson
    3B Riley
    LF Rosario
    DH Duvall
    SS Swanson
    C d’Arnaud
    CF Pache

    C Pina
    IF Arcia
    IF Miller
    OF Pillar

    SP Fried
    SP Morton
    SP Anderson
    SP Bumgarner
    SP Ynoa

    LR Lee
    MR Webb
    MR O’Day
    MR Minter
    MR J. Jackson
    SU Matzek
    SU L. Jackson
    CL Smith

    IL - Soroka, Yates


    I could actually see the Braves going after Olson if they lose Freeman

      In my franchise on 21 Detroit signed Correa in the off season. Bryant went to the rangers, Rizzo went to the cubs, story ended up in Pittsburg

      Bryant to Seattle
      Correa to Detroit
      Rizzo back to the Yankees
      Story to Philadelphia
      Schwarber to Colorado or San Fran

        That could be a fun way of doing it. Go into a franchise in MLBTS 21, simulate the offseason and replicate it in your franchise in 22

        I’m sure you’ll have free agents signing with random teams and some that we wouldn’t expect too

          My roster (to be found in the Vault under ID ped3328 and called ENROUTE TO '22 SEASON) has but 45 FA players on their former team. I placed them in A class. All the remaining FA are actually in the 4 FA slots. I kept all players who have either retired or gone to play overseas. That being said, I plan to allocate the best FA on weaker teams to allow for a better balance. That should be a lot a fun ! Gone are the weaker teams such as the Orioles, Pirates, Diamondbacks, etc. There's nothing like a little fantasy to create better competition !

            For Carlos Correra I'm torn between having him return to the Astros or signing him to the Yankeees

            And for sentimental and personal bias reasons, I'm considering adding Albert Pujols back to the Cardinals, but only if I decide to go the universal DH route.
            the yankees will not sign correra for 2 reasons

            1 their best pos play his spot minor league
            2 the yankees owner wants the tax at 180 mil he tryed to push for that last year

              I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

              I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

                Yeah Yankees will do a typical Cashman move and sign Simmons or someone like that that will get injured at some point with injuries history and a player that was once great but injuries lowered his value.

                he likes those kinds of signings like Tullo Kluber tallon Elsbury etc.

                    If there are approximately 300 free agents remaining in MLB does the show even have that many FA spots to place them in free agency?

                    I don’t believe the player pool is large enough to carry that many unless teams are actually left with empty roster spots not occupied by fake players.

                    This is a good point. I don't know how many slots there are but there are the other 3 legends areas which I usually wipe over as well with free agents.

                    I would imagine though the CAP limit would be very low then because of the more free agents this year. unless they are not gonna bother with lower free agent players and scrap them out of the game so that CAP isn't full.

                      Correa to the Jays! They were apparently in on Seager, so why not?
