So i just signed Damon and want to trade him to Cleveland but it wont let me It says "This trade will likely be rejected because one or more players were recently signed as free agents"... WTF?any ideas why? is this a bug?

MLB rules state that you cannot sign a FA and trade him within a certain time frame. I'm not sure of the time frame though. This is correct in the game. Put him on the roster before you start.

Are we really gonna do this here?

Correct. Also what happens IRL.....almost all players are placed on waivers in order to facilitate trades.

When contracts are changed...it changes the budget to help keep the franchise mode in line.

Did we change his contract?....I didn't think so....unless it's his real one.

If you released a franchise file I think everyone can just download that and the questioning would stop, to an extent. Just a suggestion.

Well....I think Hustlin' has already made a 25 man roster which is the same as starting the franchise file.
