Re: Missing Players in MLB 18

Great list as always bud. It's always nice being able to see who will likely need to be created for OSFM. One quick trend I've noticed and I'm sure others have as well is that most higher profile names will still make it in if they're "50/50." This of course would include David Wright so I would guess he's on the default roster.

Re: Missing Players in MLB 18

Nathan Eovaldi shud be 50/50 as he haven't played this year due to TJ.. most likely he'll still be in the game.

It's always hit or miss with some of the high profile guys. I'm sure David Wright will be in, but I put him at 50/50 just in case

Re: Missing Players in MLB 18

Lincecum is trying to make a comeback, again. So yeah he’s not retired.

Yeah I saw that. Still will be missing from 18 though unfortunately.

Yeah. He’s been outta the league for basically 2 years now right? I was just commenting on the fact that you mentioned he hasn’t officially retired, because it seems like he won’t be yet.

Just 1 season (2017). He was contemplating retirement, but took the year off and last month said he was coming back and has been working out in Phoenix.

Re: Missing Players in MLB 18

I think big time Timmy Jim picked the wrong year to make a comeback as a free agent. Maybe he should give the Japan League a try instead.

Re: Missing Players in MLB 18

Lincecum is always a hard player to create too because we don't have much options for hair type.

he wasn't in the game the year he played for the Angels too. funny how he is in the game on the years he is out lol

I doubt he will make a start in the majors though I would be surprised.

Did Cliff Lee ever retire eventually?

His agent said on Fox in 2016 it would take "a perfect situation" for him to come back. Seeing as how that's 2 years ago almost, it's safe to assume he's probably done.

Lincecum was in Show 16, I signed him to play in Baltimore. He should be in every year since Show 08. He probably just got removed like Ryan Howard did in an update for 17.

Re: Missing Players in MLB 18

I think nate eovaldi should be a 50 50 too couldn't see him on the list.

he didn't pitch a innings last year after he left the yankees for Rays, looks like he is gonna be in the rays rotation too
