I'm just curious here and it's no big deal, but why hasn't Mikie Mahtook been added to the Devil Rays yet in the Live roster updates? If anyone knows the answer to this question or has an opinion on the matter I'd love to know. Not too big a deal for me, but a major annoyance to see a player that was on the Rays Roster until the 23rd of this month not making it into the roster updates.

For some reason Yu Darvish is in the Red Sox bullpen for today's game vs. Toronto using the live rosters. Koji Uehara is missing.

I'm just curious here as to why you're still calling them the Devil Rays lol. It's been like 7 years since they changed their name!

To answer your question, I believe the players have to sign papers saying they can be put in the game. Last year Jonathan Schoop didn't sign his papers right away, so he wasn't put into the game until the 1st or 2nd roster update (He played the year before, so he would've been on the default roster if he signed his papers).

He probably still needs to submit his paperwork

Because I honestly don't think that should have removed Devil from the name in the first place. I still call the New Orleans Pelicans the New Orleans Hornets sometimes too. Tampa Bay Devil Rays sounds much better then just Tampa Bay Rays, and I'm sure others would agree with me.

Now back to topic thanks for the answer, like I said not a big deal but nice to have an answer and a reason behind it and it's not just because SCE San Diego Studio just don't like him lol.
