        Were the O's players the only ones who had contract issues?

            Thank you Ridin, tbarnes, and aroid, and any one else who worked on these!

            I think its best for me to stay off of the roster forum after 2.2, that is the only way for me to get deep into a franchise. On here, I read errors that I never would've noticed myself, and say "why not wait another week".

                I have a question for Ridin' or anybody else who may be able to answer. I am considering changing all closing pitchers to relief pitchers before I start my franchise. In theory I believe this will allow the computer put whoever is their best reliever as their closer and prevent the computer from having a 77 CP at closer when they have an 88 RP. Is there any negative to doing this that I am overlooking? Thanks

                  Yes, it will affect player morale and more importantly draft logic. I believe all teams were purposely given 3 closers in OSFM so the AI does not always think they are 'thin' at closers, and constantly draft them.

                  I agree with you that they all should be RP because a closer is not a true position. Closers are just relievers finishing a game. But it is what it is, don't think there is any solid workaround, except for changing 3 RPs to closers on every team, at all levels before the draft, each year.

                    If playing franchise, should I control all 30 teams or just let them do what they will? Does it change if doing a fantasy draft?

                    First year with TS so any feedback is appreciated.

                      This year closers are sometimes rp. I know I have seen Miller and betances at times placed in closer role.

                        FWIW, I tend to bump a few other top relievers around the league into the Closer role before starting a Franchise, so they will earn some saves here and there as well. The AI uses their closers WAY too much (mainly this is due to all pitchers in the game having too much stamina/durability, and the fact that the AI NEVER subs out a struggling closer as long as he's the highest rated closer on their roster).

                        I also use 30 team control, and let the other 29 teams do whatever they want, except that at the end of each month I will check their Closers, and their performance. If a Closer has been getting lit up, I will swap him out with a different reliever, or edit their best reliever into a closer and insert him into the role. If I don't do this, there are WAY too many closers getting WAY too many saves every year.

                        The pitcher stamina/durability issue is something I plan to address as well, since there are also WAY too many starters putting up tons of innings. I plan to go through and drop all starters down by 10 Stamina/10 Durability, and Relievers down by 20 Stamina/10 Durability, so that the CPU will use their pitchers more like real life.

                          I have done both with Knight's roster over the years. As of late and this year I will be just controlling one team. It is too much micromanagement for me with lineups, injuries, etc. at this stage of my life, and deff. too time consuming. If you have the time and want the most realistic possible then have 30 team control on, you can even turn on injury management on only in the majors which saves times and wasn't around when I use to play 30 team control.

                          I look forward to having my franchise play out and create its own league with trades, free agency, injuries, etc.

                          The question for me is I should ride out with 40 man or 25 man roster? But I think I'm going 25 this year for more realistic lineups/positions. David Ortiz always playing first annoys me at this point!

                            I know I changed Miller to CP and Betances to RP until early May when I bring Chapman up and they will be both RPs. However, it still affects their morale when they are out of their designated role for example even though Betances is a CP if you look at his morale it is low at role because he is not in the closer role in the bullpen.

                            But each level and every team has 3 closers at each level for balance when drafting/free agency/trading.

                              I use 30 team control just in case something is wonky and i can make changes if I need to, other than that, it's my own world.

                                That's a good point...Do you find yourself always tinkering with lineups especially due to injuries? I kept micromanaging the minors and what not with injuries to have proper, or at least logical call ups and what not.
