    Where is Edwin Diaz?

    Can someone enlighten me as to why he is not in the game yet? He was called up over a month ago an has been dominating the league in that time frame (30 K's in 14 innings). I've been anxious to add him to my DD team. It seems like an awfully long time. 4 roster updates have come and gone since his call-up.

    MLBPA paperwork pending approval more than likely.

      If he were a Yankee he'd be in the game by now.

        I think part of the blame falls on him, he has some responsibility to fill out the MLBPA paperwork in a timely fashion and seems to have not done that yet. I remember last year Janikowski (the SD outfielder) was a September call up I believe and never filled out his paperwork so he wasn't in the game until this year

          By time he gets around to filling out the paperwork (I thought you were automatically in the MLBPA just by being on the roster?) he will be like an 80-82 ovr and I wont be able to buy low on him fml.

            No, you have to submit paperwork to the MLBPA first before becoming a member. The responsibilty lies with the player and his agent to submit the paperwork.

              I don't understand this it's been over 2 months and he has been one of the top RP's in the game in that time and has 18 K/9 on the season. Looks like he may never be added.

                It's on him to submit the paperwork, just for example Mike Miller of the Red Sox made his MLB Debut on June 27th and just now got added in this update. And Andrew Benintendi didn't get added either, I feel as though some of the players don't care too much about the paperwork because they're just enjoying their time in the Bigs, hopefully they both get added soon

                  Edwin Diaz is officially in MLB the Show, he's listed as a closing pitcher for the Mariners so he finally turned his paperwork in. Just thought you'd like to know

                      They finally add him, and proceed to do him dirty on the ratings, his FB velo and his K/9 should both be a 99. He has thrown the 2nd or 3rd fastest pitch this year (If you apply the Chapman filter), and has the most K's through his 1st 35 inn than any pitcher in the modern era. But I shouldn't complain. Look forward to using him in 17 since it's Madden and 2k season now.

                          dude, can you stop being ridiculous. He's thrown less then 50 innings don't declare him the next Chapman immediately...
