Are LIVE Rosters updated everyday?

Just curious how often the LIVE Rosters are updated, specifically for Play Now mode.

once a week

I've noticed that the play now (daily rosters) is the current roster for those teams and different from the roster update. I may be mistaken but that is how it appeared to me last year.

IIRC, the weekly downloads were Monday morning. You'll notice when you get a prompt asking if you want to DL the newest rosters or not.

The daily live rosters are separate from the rest of the game. They update about an hour or so before the real life game starts typically when MLB.COM's gameday gets the starting line ups the game will set the line up's to be as accurate as possible for the teams playing that day ( typically players who are not in MLB the Show already will be replaced with free agents in years past ) the mode is based on downloading data to set up the line ups and stats.

Is there any way to use LIVE Rosters in season mode?

Same question, i don't find any roster update for the moment....

Community --> roster update --> "there is no data at this time"

Re: Are LIVE Rosters updated everyday?

I'm pretty sure this is how it works. The LIVE Rosters come out once a week with major updates and player moves. The DAILY Rosters uses the players off the LIVE roster to make daily lineups. So players may appear on the right team on the Daily Rosters without them moving on the Live Roster. You can tell this because sometimes if a player isn't moved yet on the Live Roster but they are moved on the Daily Roster, they could be wearing their old jersey number. Also, if rookies aren't yet created on the Live Roster they won't be part of the daily roster.

yes, save ''live roster'', then when you start a season and it says use saved roster, load the live roster

Same question, i don't find any roster update for the moment....

you will get the no data if you already have the current update
just go to the save screen and save ''live roster'' - same as above

So I'll have owned the game about two weeks before I can play with Eric Thames...?

So happy I bought the game for the first time in three years.

hopeful there will be an update before the weeknd begins. friday would be perfect.
but that might not be enough time for all the proper paperwork to wind through the right channels.

He has to play a game first. If you're out of MLB for a year you aren't part of the MLBPA anymore.
