Re: Eliminating or severely cutting back retirements in Franchise

Hey Bacon: How do you edit players from the new draft class? They are not available until the season ends, and by that time the retiring or Poor free agent market has taken out a lot of players.

Yeah, that's the issue with how I do it. You can't edit players who were drafted until after the 2015 retirees are shown. So the first retirement period is a throwaway but after that you can control how many players retire in future years by editing their age like I mentioned above. Which is another reason why my roster has so many 'new players' and 'new pitchers.' I kinda polices how many actual players retire the first year.

To be honest, I'm stumped. If you work for hours getting your roster just right than you have to live with that first year retirement issue. The only thing I know to do is if you have potential major leaguers retired, then between you'll have to create them by editing one of the A or AA players between the 2015 and 2016 seasons. You're right Bacon96, after the first year you can edit the drafted players but of course that doesn't help set up your 2016 or second year.

If there is someone you are afraid is a potential candidate to retire, then the immediatly following the world series write down their contact & power rating. Then bump it to 99. After the player retire screen is done, fix power & contact rating back.

I noticed on the streams...looks as though players under contract do not retire due to injury any longer. Also didn't see any player with higher attributes that were younger retire due to injury.

I've been asking for quite awhile.so fingers are crossed.

Much less yes, but I noticed Vince Velasquez retiring due to injury on one stream

Re: Eliminating or severely cutting back retirements in Franchise

Just saw another stream and Gerrit Cole retired due to injury. So looks like reduced but not eliminated.
