i thought that wasted an players option?

Easiest way I have found to do it so far
Start Franchise with Roster of your choice
Sim to last game of ST or 1st game of season and than do your 26man they way you want

DO NOT take these players off of 40 man as they will hit waivers

Roster of choice meaning any 40-man roster?

Well I can confirm that the rosters stick beginning with either a 26 man or a 40 man, but it's a pain in the *** to set up properly. Either way, you have to knock guys back down to the minors during Spring Training to get back to your original 26 man team and that took me a few hours to do.

I bet. Was that for just one team or for 30 team control?

30, but now everything is setup exactly like the fan graphs projections.

Any chance you can give detailed instructions?

During spring training it brings all the guys on your 40 man to the mlb level if you start with a 40 roster or it will auto populate the 40 man if you start with a 26 roster. At any point during Spring Training go to the roster section within franchise and for all 30 teams drop the guys back down to the minors to where they were originally, it will use an option but when you advance to the regular season all the lineups and rotations stick. I don't care about the options getting used because I don't carry over year to year. I used 2 profiles, my profile and a cpu profile when starting the franchise. 29 teams on the cpu profile. You can pick and choose which game specific options are on auto and which are on manual for the profiles. You set up the profiles outside of franchise.

Originally before starting the franchise I altered Ridins roster following the fan graphs projections website to get all the lineups, bench warmers and pitching rotations. While I was at it I dropped all players with attributes over 99 back down to 99, fixed Tulo's age from 25 to 35, and added all the missing HR celebrations for players with their names in the list of celebrations to choose from. Then using the mlb website , to the best of my ability I corrected the 40 man roster, some players were missing but i filled in the gaps, it's not really a big deal.

As far as the few players that start on waivers, I purposely left them in AAA to begin with and then in Spring training once they were auto added to the mlb level like everyone else I added them to the lineups as needed.


Edit: The only thing I couldn't figure out how to do was get Ohtani in the DH spot but oh well.
