MLB 15 The Show Year-to-Year Saves Tutorial Video

[Steve_OS]

For those of you curious to see how MLB 15 The Show year-to-year saves work in RTTS, Franchise, or Season modes, check out the latest video, as Ramone Russell shows you how simple it is.

More details about year-to-year saves can be seen here, as quite a few people already have the game and testing it out. Ramone is there answering a few questions.

Below are some notes on year-to-year saves, specific to players no longer part of the MLBPA:

• We only remove players who are no longer a part of the Players Association. We update all the MLB players created by us.
• If players are no longer part of the MLBPA, their likeness will not be in the game.

Knowing that the equipment updates is awesome! Every sports game should have this feature. Tomorrow can not get here soon enough

So if a player who played MLB in previous years, but then misses an en entire year due to an injury, this player is no longer a member of the MPBPA and they need to play in at least one MLB game in the current season before they are reinstated to the MLBPA? That seems weird. Perhaps it makes sense in the real world for the lawyers, but when it comes to this game you would think there could be some sort of exception made for the injured players.

I don't think being injured means you're not in the MLBPA. I'm pretty sure if you have a major league contract you're in the MLBPA. Alex Rodriguez is a good example of having a whole year off and being back this year. He didnt play any last year but is in the game this year.

Ramone do you know if the players like Kris Medlen who arent in the default rosters and were hurt last year will be added in the next roster update or will we have to wait until they appear in another game this year?

Remember your save file is it's own timeline if you started and those guys are missing they will stay missing. We are looking at a player import feature but that's probably for mlb 16.

If injured players are not removed from the MLBPA, then why were they removed from the game? If we need to wait until these players play a game at the Major League level before they are allowed to return into the game, then we could be waiting months despite the fact that many of these players (Medlens, Bouchy and Josh Johnsons to name a few) are on their club's respective 40-man rosters. I was under the impression that if someone was on a 40-man roster then they would be in the game (not counting the rookies of course). Just trying to understand what the rules are that caused these injured players to be removed from the game.
