Starters being assigned to the bullpen and closer role. That bugs me.

Read the quote just above yours.

It appears you must play with the SCEA roster of the week in which you are playing TSL. So if you play a TSL game from 4/15-4/21 then you need to play with the 4/15 SCEA roster. If I use the 4/22 roster and play a 4/21 TSL game, the rosters are inaccurate with F/As, but if I play today (4/22) with the 4/22 SCEA roster, they are correct and no F/As

Thanks very much for this info! I will give this a try. I had mistakenly been using the roster update from 4/8 that (I think) specifically said "Live Roster Update". Unless I missed something, the tutorial/explanation for using this mode properly needs to be clearer.

Lastly, there is also a "Save Live Roster" command in the Data Utility screen--do we need to use that in conjunction with the roster updates? What does this do?

Oh sorry, didn't see. So if you load the latest live roster then launch Show Live, it's up to date and more accurate?

THAT is the roster you want to save and load to play TSL!

Wait. So we can't just load the new roster? We need to both load the latest roster update (4/22 in this case) AND save it using the Save Live Roster command? Sorry, I'm really not an idiot, just a little confused about the exact process. Thanks!

Just save it once a week (Every Monday) and Load that new roster before you play TSL.
