    I realize that. That doesn't answer my question of whether its a 25 man or 40 man version. In past years, sometimes they release OSFM with players only on the 25 man roster and every one else in the minors are not on the 40. Other years they release it with accurate 40 man rosters.



    The advantages and disadvantages:



    25 man only: allows them to set real lineups without the cpu logic messing up who actually makes the cut for the opening day roster; disadvantage is, because no one else is on the 40, it can effect callups.



    40 man roster: Callups are going to be better, but the opening day lineups will be off since who gets cut is dependent on CPU logic, unless you control every team.



    I personally prefer the 40 man roster version, but I know this gets debated every year.


    Easy fix though.... if we release 25 man take it and add the other 15 and you have yourself 40 man.... not really a debate

      Was just asked for the 3,331 time today if we are releasing rosters at midnight tonight when game comes out.... I will clarify....

      NO

      We get the game when you all get the game so that’s physically impossible.... No ETA when it’s done it’s done, I do think the process will be much faster than previous years because of the work we have already done BUT won’t sacrifice quality just to release....

            Why would anyone have been thinking it might be out tonight? That’s insane.

                Just want to add my appreciation for the guys that have been banging these rosters out for years. I have used OSFM since MLB 13.

                Had an Astros franchise back on MLB 14. Tried to mimic the Astros moves irl. Called Springer up on the last day to delay arbitration and did the same with Correa the next year. We made the wild card the second season and lost in the world series the next season after, with Chris Carter leading the league in home runs during the latter. During the Astros run this past season, I kept thinking about that franchise and how I almost predicted the run lol. Cool story bro, but just a testimony to the OSFM rosters....

                  Just wanted to say thank you to everyone who works on the rosters every year, and those who even take time off work to do so. Thank you for making The Show an incredible, and more importantly, ACCURATE experience every season.

                      Players hit free agency after they hit 6 years of service time. To delay the 6th year of service time, teams can send players to the minors for about 4-5 weeks to gain an additional year of the player. When Baby Vlad or Bichette are ready the Jays will probably do this. I think I've heard the cut off is around April 21 for this year, but you may want to wait until May 1 to be safe. Someone else may be able to correct me on that. Hope that helps.

                        Ridin bud... Dont know if you're aware or not... But we cant add/remove face shields from players.

                        May want to wait for 1st roster update to see if they add them to guys?

                          I'll be fine either way....I'm just thrilled you guys do this incredible work every year...

                          But playing devil's advocate, it is far simpler to go in to the 40 man roster and cut it down to 25 (10 minutes) rather than having to look-up 40 man rosters online and search for the guys in the roster to make the adjustment (easily an hour).

                          BUT....I don't know how much added time setting a 40 man would add to your process....so, if doing it as a 25 is easier....that's groovy too.

                              So I guess I should wait to create another RTTS. I tried using current rosters and some top prospects weren’t inported. I’ll judt continue the ones I played in 17. Or I could make it in 17 using the offseason update 9 then after the showcase move him to 18. What should I do?

                                Totally agree here. I much prefer OSFM when it releases as a 40 man roster as opposed to 25.

                                But honestly, it's a small point, because no matter which one they chose, someone will create the other version for download shortly after release.
