Hey OS,
Like you, I prefer to see the most realistic game of baseball played in my imaginary world. My biggest pet peeve is seeing a baseball player wear white batting gloves with their gray away uniforms. Or a player on the Seattle Mariners wearing a red glove in the field. To combat this, I took it upon myself to edit all 93 players on all 30 teams from Black/White/Red/Blue/Green/Purple to Team Color 1, Team Color 2, and Team Color 3 on all equipment.
Of course, some exceptions are made based on the player, but for the most part, all players use TC1,2,3.
My roster also includes correct jersey numbers, the international free agents (Yamamoto, Lee, Matsui), some missing players (Mayer, Wesneski), and all current roster moves as of 3/19 (Blake Snell on SF).
Finally, I change all CP to RP (no point in differentiating) and I re-rate RP stamina to reflect them being in the bullpen and not a failed SP. For example, all RP with Stamina over 70 is lowered to 35. Anyone between 35-70 get bumped down to 30. The rest I leave as is.
Oh, and no injuries.
What this roster does not include is realistic 26/40-man rosters. (because of no injuries)
All teams have ONLY their 26-man MLB roster on their 40-man. Allows you some flexibility with how you want to handle your rosters individually without having to deal with Options, Waivers and DFAs. I recommend handling that before starting your Franchise/RTTS.
I did take some liberties on player's equipment when it came to their brands. For players with generic/not branded or brands not in MLBTS, I either gave them random brands or tried my best to re-create them (Kershaw's Sketchers cleats are just Jordans without the Jordan logo)
For some players, I went online and tried to match their equipment. But for others, I just gave them what I think looks good. For example, the 57 OVR, D potential 26-year-old 3B, may have incorrect equipment. (But it won't be white on the road!)
I also took it upon myself to give players some better looking jersey numbers than their spring training numbers. For example, Jett Williams (NYM top prospect) will never play in MLB with number 90 (his current # in game and in spring training). In my roster, he's #3. I did this with a lot of players. (No more SP/RP with single digits, unless they do wear them in real life).
Again, this roster is not perfect, but it's great for those who like equipment edits.
Roster Name: All 93/30 Team Equipment (3/19)

I will not be updating as I will be diving into my franchise now, enjoy!
