Potential drops and raises are not going to be all over the plaoe.
You will see them here and there, most likely with minor leaguers.
Everyone is indeed in the mix for potential changes...
Your e-mails will give you indications on first...your possible candidates and then....who it does happen to.
It's not specific...but read into the e-mails and you'll figure it out.

Ya, Knight ur prolly right. Its hard to tell why they are getting sent up and down honestly. I just know if injuries are set to off I saw ZERO movement. And with injuries on I saw a ton! However, again with injuries off, there still is that email sent to u on augst 1st. You can use that to move players manually, also the cpu does do september call-ups on september 7th. Not all teams do, but most of them do.

And yes, there are FAs, wasnt saying that. My issue is that teams seem to sign guys at random. There's no logic behind it whatsoever. I was just asking for suggestions to deal with that. I know i can control it, but if i set FAs to manual, everyone resigns with their team(tested it). I can force teams to sign certain players, but wouldnt know how to go about deciding who goes where and who stays where.

How far in the game were you to see this? I haven't seen it yet in any of my test franchises.

It can actually happen at any point.
Look for these e-mails...
"Struggling player"....so and so is having a terrible...
or the opposite...where the guy is tearing it up....
That's your first indicator.

Then you will get an e-mail saying so and so might not be what we thought he was...or so and so might be better than we thought he was(paraphrasing on all of these). That is when the CHANCE for a potential change is in place.

You usually won't see it until at least month 2 I believe.

I believe the chance for MLB players is also there.
The %'s may be different for them...and there will be no e-mails in that regard....it's up to you to figure those out I would guess.

eww i am disgusted:

first of all i want to say cpu didnt do a SINGLE trade for me, not sure how why im not getting this bug??

then also the obvious claim any player off waiver you want but


now:

-had a player retire due to a dislocated ankle!?!?!? LOL
-as last year, scout tons of players who are not even in the draft.

-cpu is signing FA , but i dont even have a FA screen to go into the pool, to offer contracts.. LOL

-some horrible declines (probably bc of the potential bug though)


im would be pretty angry had i played all these games only to find this mess.

LOL Can't happen? -as last year, scout tons of players who are not even in the draft. This will happen....do you get reports on players in the draft?...you should...it's by design except for the top incoming guys....it's a crapshoot. Do you really want it totally laid out for you? I haven't delved too much into this though -cpu is signing FA , but i dont even have a FA screen to go into the pool, to offer contracts.. LOL Of course there is....go and LOOK -some horrible declines (probably bc of the potential bug though) Bingo im would be pretty angry had i played all these games only to find this mess.

Homer...Really not sure what ut talking about cuz I have no issues offering FAs a contract if i want. The waiver thing is a problem yes, but just dont claim anyone. I would feel like its cheating if i signed Pujols off the trade waivers wouldnt you?

To sign FAs just go to manage conteracts on the calendar, and the first screen shows all FAs
