I just got this game recently and i'm loving it so far. I was just wondering if someone could make me aware of the major bugs and how to fix them, if any, before I get into my franchise?

Re: Questions about bugs
Hoo boy... that's 'writer's cramp' stuff you're asking there. Where to begin? You know about the passed ball fix no doubt... Injuries and pitcher fatigue don't work... Trading screws up the lineups...
Then there's the stuff you can't turn off or avoid: games played aren't credited... stats are messed up... position players are credited with pitching wins and saves...
I'd suggest sticking with single seasons: you can control all teams and therefore fix some of the problems if they pop up. -

How can I fix the injruies and pitcher fatigue one ,and the trading one? What are some of the ways I can fix things in season mode?Check out my sports blog:

Re: Questions about bugs
Injuries and pitcher fatigue just don’t work, period, so there’s no fix for those. If you trade in franchise, it can mess up your lineup – which you can fix – but it also messes up the CPU lineups – which can’t be fixed unless you control all teams. Also, the CPU will do stupid things like put Frank Thomas @ SS or have the P batting second.
People have been turning off injuries and trades when playing franchise, so that’s one way to go. I think what I would do is play a season, and if I wanted to trade, run the trade offer through another saved file where the CPU-controlled team can decide if it will accept. Then if it does, make the moves in your real season. Also, if injuries occur, manually demote the injured players to AAA so the CPU (or you) can’t use them in games.Comment

Re: Questions about bugs
On another forum, I read that there is a workaround for the injury problem. Injuries work as expected if a game is simmed, or if a played game is simmed after the injury happens.
For example, if you are playing a game and a player gets hurt, the glitch is that he will be back to normal health if you manually play the rest of the game out. However, if you sim the last portion of the game (after the injury occurs), then the player will remain injured as expected.
Hope this helps (and works, because I haven't tried it yet)Comment
