MLB players who played during the 2017 season that are missing on MLB THE SHOW 18

[Houston]

I completely get why rookies/top prospects are missing from the game, but players that played last year (2017) and some have been on previous games and some SDS added during the year on MLB 17 roster updates are no where to be found on MLB THE SHOW 18.

This is only a short list I am sure there are others, but for me this is unacceptable. In past years SCEA [Lorne and Luis] have always been very good about adding players on the following years game and most if not all would always have a scanned face or a face done by the art team. Why on earth was things done so sloppy this year?

Don't even get me started on the players who have the wrong service time. I can deal with height & weights being off, but career stats and service time? missing players who are still a part of the MLBPA who played in games during the 2017 season not on this years game at all?

Maybe I'm misremembering but wasn't Gentry added in one of the first 2 updates?

He was added, but should have been a real player since he played last year.

This is some work from my 2018 OPENING DAY project, not all played in 2017, but it's amazing how many of these can be found on 2017.

So many players with wrong service time this year, stuff that we half to do on our own to fix players. The game already comes as a half game with on about 35-40 players on each team who are real players and we half to create the missing pieces, rookies etc and this year they added on to all the extra work that has to be done with all these missing players who appeared in MLB games in 2017.

This list is only for ORIOLES-RANGERS I can't imagine how much bigger it will grow when I get thru the rest of the AAA teams.
