FWIW. My game no longer freezes. I can play my franchise again. I'm happy.

WHAT'S THE BUG?
I am finding it more and more difficult to take this game seriously. The rosters are changing so much that I have to wonder if you guys know anything at all about baseball. It's not the trades. It's the ratings. It's the fact that some very significant players disappear from the rosters entirely, and do not end up in the free agency pool. It's that players appear from nowhere, sometimes starting for a team. Where were they all this time?
I have been playing the Astros, because they were the worst team last year. Apparently they are not the worst team this year.
If you switch the positions of the players you discover that J.D. Martinez is the Astros' best 3B, by far. And since he is an "A" potential he develops into a superb 3B very quickly. He's even better at 1B, but why waste that magnificent arm? On the other hand, Jose Altuve is in the All-Star game, and his durability is still only about half. Most of the Astros players are lacking durability. Why is that?
In the default roster Brett Myers is a SP making $1.1 Mil with a nearly full stamina bar. In the updated rosters he is a RP with very little stamina, and in the last couple of rosters he is making $5 Mil. How does a guy go from SP making $1.1 mil to RP making $5 mil? I know he has been moved around, but he's the same guy.
In previous rosters Jonathan Singleton was a valuable minor league 1B with lots of trade appeal. In the last roster he is just gone. He's not a free agent. He hasn't been traded. He's just gone from the game.
I know that San Diego Studios said that they beefed up the AI for CPU trades, but there is still a lot of weirdness going on. I have to make up all kinds of rules for myself to follow in order to avoid completely raping the CPU teams.
For instance, I mentioned that J.D. Martinez makes a good 3B. You can switch him to 3B and trade him for almost any 3B in the game. Reed Johnson, CF for the Cubs, makes a top-flight 2B/SS. You can get him from the Cubs for a garbage player, apparently they want to unload his contract, and you can trade him to 1/3 of the teams in the league for nice players.
The Orioles will pay you to take Endy Chavez off their hands, but if you move him from LF to CF he instantly becomes the best player on your team. Then, if you want, you can trade him back to the Orioles for a high quality player such as J.J. Hardy. I don't do that. I prefer to play him. The Orioles are willing to let go of Matt Weiders for way less than he's worth.
The A's practically beg you to take Coco Crisp off of their hands. Switch him to CF and he becomes very valuable. The Giants will give you Melky Cabrera (in the All-Star game) and Angel Pagan for nothing. The Twins will give you Span and Revere for almost nothing.
It has become difficult for me to play the game because all of the roster changes make it difficult to believe that any of the rosters are actually accurate, and it is still way too easy to take advantage of the CPU trade AI.
I hope in the future San Diego Studios focuses more on the franchise mode, because in the end this game is "weak" in this area.

Bug: Base hit incorrectly scored as fielder's choice
Game mode: RTTS
Situation: 0 or 1 out, runner on first. Sharply hit line drive to first baseman who couldn't field the ball but the runner dived back to first to avoid the possible double play. Due to his really slow reaction time he dived back when the ball already had passed the first baseman and just started running when I reached first safely. Standing up and running to second was enough time for the right fielder to field the ball and forced the out on second base.
The play was scored a fielder's choice by the game. Announced by Matt V. when my guy stepped to the plate the next time and confirmed by the "Performance Evaluator" at the end of the game.
Repeatable?: Happened only once as of now.

Bug: Base hit and RBI incorrectly scored as E3 and no RBI
Game mode: RTTS
Situation:1 out, runner on second. Runner advances to third on passed ball/wild pitch. My guy then hits a hard ground ball towards first base but the infielder's glove misses the ball by an inch or two. Runner from third scores, my guy is safe on first. The game scores the play as an E3 (the ball was not misplayed, the first baseman was just a split second too slow to react) and most surprisingly I did not get credited for the RBI. Runner on third would have easily scored even if the first baseman had a play.
Repeatable?: Happened only once as of now.
I saved the replay from the first baseman's perspective but I have no recording deviceComment

Bug: Can't turn off email messages in franchise
Game mode: Franchise, 30 team control
It doesn't matter if the email boxes are checked or unchecked, the emails keep pouring in. Is it a bug or did I miss something when I set up the franchise?
Repeatable?: YesComment

Whats the bug? Catcher doesn't catch a pitchout. Ball rolls to backstop. Catcher remains frozen in "about to throw to second base" position. Baserunner, if stealing, cannot advance beyond second; if not stealing, is stuck leading off first. Game is effectively frozen at this point.
What game mode did you experience the bug/glitch in? (Gameplay, RTTS, Franchise, Online, Front End, etc.....) RTTS
How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it? Can you recreate it? My RTTS player was at first base and extended his lead. CPU pitched out and the catcher didn't catch the ball. Game frozen at that point
How often can the bug be reproduced? Has happened six or seven times, more often now that my player has respectable enough speed that the CPU manager feels the need to pitch out.

What's The Bug?: I've seen this mentioned, but it really needs to be fixed...when fielding a ground ball in the late innings of a close game, the fielder double or triple pumps and doesn't make the throw in time to get the runner.
What Game Mode?: Offline Franchise
How Did It Happen/Did I Trigger It?: I have fielding assist and it happens as I try to make a throw to first or any other bag.
How Often Can The Bug Be Reproduced?: It happens about 75% of the time, with that scenario.
I have no video, but if this bug isn't corrected, it makes the game [which I love] unplayable.Comment

Re: MLB 12 The Show - Bugs/Glitches Thread
I was the original poster of that, it seems to happen after you take your SP out. It's like you're holding the button down too long and it registers that as a double-tap to cancel the throw. You can either deal with it or turn throw cancelling off.Comment

Re: MLB 12 The Show - Bugs/Glitches Thread
Happened to me a couple of times with my speedy RTTS CF.
His second position is IF. He was pinch hitting for the catcher on a night off and took over his position in defense. Runner on first and I wanted to throw the pitcher a normal pitch (no pitchout) but as soon as the pitcher started his pitch motion my guy popped up from the crouch and made no attempt to catch the ball. It seemed like he got too anxious with the runner on first. The pitch was blocked somewhere with his protective gear and the ball was lying on home plate. The game was effectively frozen at this point, too.Comment
