7 Man Bullpen in Franchise?

[md3883]

Every time I start a Franchise or Online Franchise and try to use a 7 man bullpen one of my middle relievers or setup guys are missing in the bullpen during games.

Anyone having the same issue or know how to fix this? I have a number of players on the bench that play multiple positions so it would be nice to have an extra RP.

Below is my current setup:
Long RP
3 Middle Reliever
2 Setup
1 Closer

Any help is much appreciated.

I've been able to move my number five starter to the bullpen for the post season with no problem, offline franchise.

Where did you end up moving them to? I'm not having any success when I move them to Middle Relief , Long Relief , or Setup. Maybe if I just leave them as a RP.

I'm not sure how many guys it takes for this to happen, but the guy you're missing may be listed underneath your CP. I know once there are enough guys in your bullpen, it starts listing some of them under your CP. If that's not the case, then I don't know what's up!

Yea I can see them everywhere but in the game when I'm trying to warm up a pitcher. Tried multiple fixes, probably just going to give up and add it to the numerous roster bugs when trying to play a franchise.

I run a 13 man pitching roster, with 8 bullpen. All of mine show up in my franchise in game. i just have to scroll down and there they are.

Thanks for the reply. I'll have to check my offline franchise maybe this issue is only happening in my online. The last pitcher I always see on the list is my closer.

I always put my number five starter in at long relief and use a four man rotation for the playoffs.
