Players that are on the DL, specifically the 60 day DL (irl) get put in A ball. I kinda wish they hadn't done that, because it can skew things. But those who want pint-point realism go with that.

I think they should of been left on the 40 man roster though because when you start a franchise they'll all be left in A ball for the season when some of them will still play this season IRL

For sliders I've tried to make a set that's a combination of TNK's and the sliders Willard suggested on one of the first few pages of this thread. In the limited time I've played with these they seem really good. I thought I might as well make a base set that we can run off of until further notice or until Willard and Co. can come up with better ones.

I know teams will be better than others, but it just seems inconsistent. Or maybe that's just the butthurt Cubs fan in my talking. -shrug-

WOW, I'm honestly speechless. I was one of the proponents of the dude who came in here complaining about only seeing three .300+ hitters, but apparently this is an issue with OSFM and OSFM V2, which clearly shows it's an issue with the sim engine in general and not the rosters. Willard said he tried to combat this problem, but in all his sims, he just couldn't and it was eating at him. Very interesting! Good job, guys!

Just did 3 season on osfm v2 and here are averages...

15 hitters @ .300+
27 hitters @ .290+
15 hitters over 100 RBIs

Big differences here especially in RBI category, in hybrids I rarely saw more than 6 guys over 100(ive ran about 15-20 sims today) and even worse on 2-3 season not 1 NL guy had over 100 rbis in the season! Whips are too low and I know its a pitchers era but the top 15-18 guys shouldn't be sub 3.00 era either! It will be interesting to see if the pitch edits make any difference, or make it worse!

I ran a couple more and highest I got was 18. ranging HRs of 37-52, which seems pretty crazy.

Well players on the 60 Day DL are not on the 40 man roster in real life. But I agree, browsing through my sims I saw guys like Matt Harvey and Profar in A-Ball at the end of the season, which is concerning. Although that's more of a The Show problem and not a OSFM prob.

Not all the "injured" players have been taken off the 40 man roster though
