    Someone help me with franchise mode, please

    This is driving me crazy and hopefully someone can help me. Everytime I want to demote a player to the minors and bring one up, I get both players in the box and hit start and then it comes up something about having to release the player from the majors because he can't be demoted. This happens with any player I try and move down to the minors. I wound up just having to release a player just to make a roster move and I know that's not right? Anyone?

    No, I didn't draft Grossman on my fantasy team, what do you think I am an idiot?

    This is how it should be. Veteran players should not be able to be demoted at will. If you demote young players, it should work fine.

    ASB 2004 and OOTP5 work similarly.

        So if a 40 year old veteran like David Cone, starts 0-3 with a 10.74 ERA, I can't send him down, I have to release him?

            The minors won't help a guy inhis 40's after the kind of career he's had.
            be who you are and say what you feel, because those who matter don't mind, and those that mind, don't matter.

                If a player is out of options, as most veterans are, you must either trade him or release him....you can't demote him.

                    Yep. It might be frustrating, but it's realistic. Maybe you can trade him for a raw prospect instead of releasing him?
