Nope. There was an update Friday and only 3 players were added. Justin Germano, Donovan Solano, and Joey Butler(he's missing his service time though).

Is it possible this is changed in the future? Perhaps an exception for franchises in their first year? Or... change it to where players are marked for replacement, but aren't actually replaced until the next offsesason?

I would think he'd be replaced. You could finish or sim the rest of 2014 on last year's game if you don't wanna lose him for the 2014 season.

Thxs ... now that I think about this, even I tried to export/import these missing players. I guess I will still be losing their likenesses if the game does not migrate them when it opens up my MLB 14 Franchise file. D'Oh.

Edited to add: Did Rockies relief pitcher Rafael Betancourt make it into the game? Perhaps he is in the pool of Free Agents? He was out for the entire 2014 season recovering from Tommy John surgery and while it is still unknown whether or not he will actually make the Rockies opening day 25-man roster (he was invited to Spring Training as a non-roster invitee), he was in the game in previous years.

I wish SCEA had a deal like 2k does, where they have rights to any player to enter the NBA after the first 2k. Would be really useful in the Show with free agents and future legends.

I slipped Jeter a $20 and he said it's okay to use his likeness in year to year saves now.

So how are folks planning to adjust their carryover saves?

I understand the legal reason for this, but am wondering if OSFM rosters just make this even more impossible to manage?

[Mike Lowe]

Or, is it just their likliness that's removed? Jeter will still be Jeter, stats and all, just not look the same? That's not a big deal if that's all it is.

Why would that matter?
We just heard from Ramone...that it's only SCEA MLB players that it happens too....so no matter what roster you used last year or beyond....it's the same players.
