Thanks for all the hard work! It's really appreciated by this guy.

Glad you like them. At some point sure I'll get some of the younger guys in the vault, but it probably won't be for a little bit. I really want to get some games in myself and this always prevents me from being able to. I'll drop all the guys I turned in to Knight and co. in the vault (only a few minor differences with a couple guys). Make sure you grab Johan Cruz, he was left out by mistake and there's a fake player in his place.

I would really like to see Andre Wheeler put into the roster or at least the vaults. He's the #30 prospect in the Sox's System and could be in the pen in the next couple of years. He's a hard throwing left handed reliever who I think would make a good addition to the roster. Now, I may be a little bias because he lived with me for a year in college and he is basically my brother but if I create him I know I wouldn't do him justice.

I actually think I included him in OSFM 2015. I'll see what I can do for you, I just hope you aren't expecting a really high ranked RP even though he pitched pretty decently (he was in High-A last year).

Sox are signing John Holdzkom. He made a brief appearance for the Pirates in 2014, so I am in the process of getting him transferred over. Looks like the replacement for Loe has been found.

Cwspalehosecws didn't you had a cap of james dykstra. He was assign to AA Birmingham barons last year he was very effective as a starter.

Holdzkom is on the Free Agent list. Number 3 I think? Simple roster move.

Good call, had no clue he was included. I found him in FA1.

I definitely don't expect high ratings for him I talked with him today and he said that if he was to rank himself he would be between 60 and 62 overall. I would just love to see him in the game and I know he would get a huge kick out of it too. Thanks for taking the time to do this for the community
