I think they expect Tazawa back mid-May if I remember correctly.

I haven't been keeping myself up to date on the franchise issue situation, so I apologize if this has been belabored before.

I'm only looking to play 1 162 game season this year. Do the current franchise issues affect short term franchises too? I know there are issues when you play multiple years, but I'm talking strictly 1 year.

Yup! That's it.

Yeah I read that. I wanted confirmation as to whether the CPU will add players to the 40 man on their own as the season progresses. I imagine they would have to for injuries, but wasn't sure what logic it uses. If it is the same as 10, then I will just go through and add every stud prospect to the 40 man to make sure the CPU calls them up. I could care less if that happens right after spring training, just as long as it eventually happens. I would hate to see another year of Strasburg (example only) hanging out in AAA for 2-3 years since he isn't on the 40 man.

I realize that you cannot look to see if a player is tearing up the AAA pitching and deserves a call up, but how do you make sure the entire roster is there for a season-ending or catastrophic injury? Great job again on the rosters fellas. ~syf

If your playing a season just make sure you use Knights original OS roster and NOT Owl's 25 man only roster

If you use Owl's version and start the season without adding those 15 guys back to the 40 man you will have ZERO inactive players and will be screwed if you have an injury

Junichi Tazawa is due back in June.

This is per Rotoworld and im not familiar with them, so take it for what its worth

Red Sox placed RHP Junichi Tazawa on the 60-day disabled list with an elbow injury.
The move was made to open a spot on the 40-man roster for Dennys Reyes. Tazawa underwent Tommy John surgery last April and is still a ways away from pitching in games, so his timetable for a return is up in the air at this point. Obviously, the Red Sox aren't expecting him to contribute until at least June, but they hope he can help out at some point this season. Mar. 26 - 3:57 pm et

Awesome, thanks for the tip. Why would one use the 25 man? What would be the benefit/issues with that one as opposed to just using the Knight OSFM rosters?

It's explained at the bottom of the first post.
