    Custom Rosters in Season mode?

    I tried starting up a season to just play a short one until i wait for the all the updates/rosters to be done, but wasn't able to use any of my saved rosters in the season? all the minor league prospects and lineups weren't able to be used. I was able to load them up fine in Franchise Mode, but not Season.

    Is this a bug or is it just not possible, because I know I'm doing it right and my buddy is having the same issue

      I'm assuming there's no work around for this? Is everyone's silence meaning that you CAN'T use custom/downloaded rosters in Season Mode?

          In season mode, you only have access to your 40 man rosters.

          You can not set lineups, etc since there is no MiLB games to be played.

          In Franchise you can play AA/AAA and use A roster slots (15), so you have access to all those lineups and players made.

          You can only have access to the 40 on the 40 man in season.

          Hope this helps.

            yea but I can see all the minor league guys in Season mode and move them around from Inactive and such and add to the 40 man. In the custom rosters I have, if I add my prospects to the 40 man lets say, I should be able to use them in Season mode. I should be able to use those players and those lineups for the major league teams I spent time working on in Season mode.

            terrible oversight IMO.

              This is odd, I do not understand the issue. Can you explain it a bit more clearly. Sorry.

                Ok, say I download rosters from the online vault. I go offline, edit the lineups, set up everything just perfectly and save it. These rosters I can use in my Franchise mode no problem.

                When I go start a Season, when it asks what Rosters I want to use, I select "SAVED", then find the roster file where I made everything perfect. I then go into my season mode, and lo and behold, it's using the Default rosters for some reason.

                No prospects, no fixed lineups, nada.

                    So you had a roster that you tinkered with offline and saved...and were then able to upload it and use in Season mode?

                    say you edited a Braves minor league RF to have the attributes and appearance of super stud Jason Heyward...you were able to use this new "Jason Heyward" in your season?

                      Interesting. Try it again and save a different file. Dont use the one giving you issues.

                      Make a whole new one (DL it), then edit it, and see if it works. You may have a slight corruptions somehow. If it still does not work, report it in the bug thread. Last year it worked fine. I used Knights for Season with no issues.

                        once I leave this wretched office and get some alone time with the TV (hopefully my fiance DVR'd American Idol for herself, cuz I ain't having that) I'll check if maybe the roster file is corrupted.


                        But Enigma, have you tried it in this year's game?

                          You're right, its not working I created myself and put him on the Rockies as a 3b. Overall was better than any other 3b on team, so should've been on roster. When started season with the saved file, my guy was nowhere to be found. If i load in for franchise it works just fine. Frustrating cuz I don't want to play franchise mode, but want my created guy

                            I am wondering if the roster update for this Monday (that fixes some lineup issues and potentials) will address this.

                            If it does not, I would post this in the Bugs thread.

                            I have yet to try it.

                              crazy that 'lil ol me found an earth shattering (IMO) bug.

                              hopefully I'm wrong!!!!

                              give it a shot later Enigma, just edit 1 player, put him on the 40 man roster of your fave team and save it. startup a season using this roster, and see if your guy is there.
