If the players retired in real life (Jeter, Konerko) they will be replaced by generic faces. Same attributes though.

Also any created players from the OS roster, they will be replaced by generated players

Are you sure about this?
That wouldn't really make sense that all created/generated players are replaced each year.
Would kind of defeat the purpose of Y2Y saves in one pretty big way(building your franchise)
I hope this is not correct.

I believe it is just "real" mlb players that are no longer part of the mlbpa.

When I tested it in studio all the created players transferred over.

I thought I remembered reading something from Russell on this, but I very well could be wrong. I'm just as confused lol

We only remove players who are no longer a part of the Players Association. We update all the MLB players created by us.

If you see otherwise please update the situation in this thread please.

Thanks for the clarification. When you remove these players is everything (likeness and attributes) removed or just the likeness?

Maybe someone who has the game can answer this one for me as well.

Their likeness is removed.

What about players like Kris Medlen? He was left off the default roster, but would be on my team I want to import. Is this the type of player that isn't coming over?

He should still be part of the MLBPA so I would think he'd be okay.

That's entirely dependant on the roster you choose to start your save file with.

Okay because I have the OSFM hybrid roster on the save file I mentioned in the op and the guys that I haven't got are the ones that are injured IRL and aren't on the default roster for this game like Dylan Bundy, Luke hochevar, Ricky Romero and Kris medlen

Does this happen even in "year 0" of an imported franchise? I completely get having to remove likenesses of departed players, but it's a bit strange that Derek Jeter will be replaced in my imported franchise, even though I'm still in the middle of 2014, and Derek Jeter existed in real life in 2014.

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?
