RTTS Trade logic a bit off?

[offishall]

Hey Folks, happy opening day. Jays fan who is cautiously optimistic about this year. Hope all of you and the team you support have a great year.

Now, been playing the show since pre-load went live, but recently started the RTTS (Did a carry over of my '14 player but decided to start fresh with new roster) and chose the Jays team, as a CF.

Didn't take long for me to get called up as the Jays need a decent CF, and my secondary position was 2b. But I noticed as I was playing popups about trades that something was off.

So 2015 in the RTTS this is how the trades went down before my call up.

Week 2
Rays trade Drew Smyly to Jays for Russell Martin

Week 6
Redsox trade Xander Bogaerts to Jays for Josh Donaldson

Week later

Yankees trade Jacoby Ellsbury for Edwin Encarnacion

Day later

Orioles trade Matt Wieters to Jays for Michael Saunders

Then I got the call up. But these trades seem kind of off the wall to me. Perhaps I'm reading too much into it, but seems to me in a few months everything they did in the off season was wiped out, and so long to Edwin.

Anyone else notice Garth Snow like managing like this?

Thanks all, here's to a great 2015 MLB season.

Yeah its pretty bad, really wish you can have some control like in franchise to stop this. In my 2018 season with the Rockies they just completly threw aware our great season by trading away all their best players like Nolan Arenando who becomes really amazing and two of our best pitchers that year like Brett Anderson and Juan Nicasio who were All Stars that year. In return they got a young reliever, Matt Dominguez, and Adrian Gonzalez. We ended up missing the playoffs this year because of those terrible trades, it really killed my enjoyment.

THere are a lot of improvements that need to be made in that mode honestly. I had a randomly generated player who won the Cy Young and Rookie of the Year one season only to be placed into Triple A for that next season. Also they need to promote and demote players/pitchers better, they kept playing Adam Octavino even though he had his Era over 7.00!! Sorry, I am not trying to derail your thread but I just would like to see some improvements to this great mode.

Should be able to decline some trades

It's always been that way in RttS. The game does not look at names only things such as position of need, contract, age, etc. I'm used to it now. I just go with it. Not much else you can do

I'm playing for the Mets on my RTTS & they were trading like crazy in 2015. They traded for Goldschmidt, Sterling Marte, Aroldis Chapman & Neil Walker. They traded D'Arnaud away. Lol
