MLBTS 21 - 2021 Spring Training Roster Project

[Distant Edge]

Hey all, since watching my Cardinals get bounced from the post-season I decided to start a new franchise and run their 2021 season back. I couldn't find a roster that had what I wanted so I decided to make my own. I figured I would share it here in case anyone is interested and I'll post details about the roster below.

The roster is uploaded under the name 'OG Dredd'

Used Ridin's V4 Roster as a base meaning it has face scans for some 2020 Draft Picks and updated ratings from around the MLB All-Star Break. I didn't make any ratings adjustments myself, only positional edits.

Reversed all trades and transactions back to February 28th (Beginning of Spring Training), set 40-man rosters based on Fangraphs' Opening Day Roster Tracker, and included non-roster invitees on rosters when possible.

Imported prospects/minor leaguers over 2021 Draft Picks using Fangraphs' '2021 Report' Prospect List.

Made sure salaries and contracts were accurate using Spotrac. I know moving players in and out of the free agent pool will result in some odd contracts, for example, minor leaguers signed for 10-yrs/$600K or 30+ year old vets signed for 3+ yrs and millions of dollars. I double-checked the contracts for every team to make sure these quirks weren't present.

That's about all I can think of, I didn't pay much attention to jersey numbers when moving players back to their original teams and some other mistakes may have slipped through the cracks, but if you notice any feel free to share them here! I won't be updating this roster but if anyone wants to please do and post here where we can find it in case anyone decides to use it in the future.

Hope you enjoy!
