Yes, I think he said they want to "lock in" a close-to-accurate opening day roster. Although, they also talked about not having injuries so teams would have their best rosters. I'm not sure what that means for guys, like Gregory Polanco, who will be on the DL at the start of the year.

If they continue to add to this mode (or fold it into franchise), they need to add storylines for players returning from long-term injury and prospect call-ups. Even without custom rosters, most teams have at least a few decent young guys in the minors. If their rating is close to someone's at their position or a starter is struggling, it could trigger the "will they call up ____ to replace _____?" storyline. They could even throw in some commentary on service time manipulation and see how MLB likes that.

I’m glad it’s here. I’ll be playing this over franchise all year.

Re: Well March to October is pretty much useless for me

I dont think its necessarily an "age" thing. I love the idea of M2O and I want to play it badly. The proble is, I start on just veteran, as a favorite team and they turned Mike Minor into damn Cy Young. High 90s and just unhittable. I am not a year round grinder so I function at the lower end of the Veteran setting. Not being able to adjust pitch speed just makes it no fun because I am lucky to eek out a single. Dont want to sink to rookie level but having trouble adjusting here. Love the idea tho.

Re: Well March to October is pretty much useless for me

got an email back from show support...all they told me was MTO rosters will be updated.

didnt say when...also i wonder if you are halfway through the season in this mode what will happen when they update...maybe new rosters wouldnt take into effect until you start the mode over.

Interesting...they did say in their pre-release Twitch streams that the rosters would be locked in a close to Opening Day as possible, but they wouldn't be updated throughout the year (at least that was how I understood it). So perhaps a Opening Day update will happen and that will be that. I would assume the "updated" roster would only be for new MtOs that would be started after the roster update is added.
