Guys this is the work and collaboration of lots of people. This project did not just start on March 31 when the game was released, it started last year during 2014's release. Work done by all the editors and contributors for over a year has gone into this. So thank you to each and every one including the man Knight who started this project years ago. He and I never imagined it would turn into what it has. Thanks this year especially to Willard and his guys. The work they put into last years Hybrid which was based off our OSFM built a great foundation for this set. The work sheet and face editing done by those guys is/was exceptional. Please look for their thread on the Hybrid release shortly. Also thanks to Dynasty Manager and lots of the community members who jumped in to assist in final days.

This is the first of many versions to come. But in my opinion the best we have ever released. Following this will be V.2 with corrections, more edits, more equip etc. Watch for that, no timeline. If you notice any corrections that need to be made, please use this thread.

This set features:

Full minor leagues
25 Man rosters set (big request so we went with 25 instead of 40)
Edited contracts (thanks to Tabarnes)
Equip Edits
DL guys in A ball

Get them in the vault

	For those wanting to donate money towards the contributors and time put in, I am asking people to donate to either Ronald McDonald House in Toronto, where my family and I are currently living - that would be the best gift ever to myself and many other family's who live here so they can be close to their sick children or Sick Kids Hospital in Toronto where my 10 month old has spent more than half of his life. For those who missed my previous post - here is the link to my family's story as well as you can get to the main web page for the house. http://www.rmhtoronto.org/the-brents I am someone who gives until it hurts and then will give more and I can't think of a better way to give back.

The excitement when waiting for these last night and the disappointment when the realization that they won't come out before I go to sleep kicked in were both very, very visible last night. And now she's telling me I can't play. So here I am, reading the forums, checking MLB highlights. 7 AM in Finland. Luckily work won't start until 4:30 PM, so plenty of time. Way off-topic with that. Anyway, plenty of thanks to roster makers! I'm sure these will be absolutely fantastic whenever I get to download them. Don't get the wrong idea, I still love my girlfriend!

I don't know if it's encouraging or discouraging to learn that they act like that in other countries too.

Use the edited 40 man roster and have the CPU pick which 25 players of the 40 end up on the active Roster. 3. Use the edited 40 man roster and manually send down the correct 15 for each team. Or a combination of 2 and 3 and just adjust my team, but let the other 29 teams have incorrect active rosters. Is that how it works? Thinking of how annoying it would be to adjust every team manually helps me to appreciate the ton of extra work that goes into creating this roster in the first place. Thanks everyone for your work on this. I've been eagerly holding off on my Franchise and RTTS for them!

In franchise you do have the other players available for call up. The CPU logic is just stupid and will only call players up when injuries occur for the CPU teams.

Thanks to everyone who had a hand in this project, MLBTS has always been a great game, but these rosters each year really do make the so much better. Not sure I could get that into this game like I do if it weren't for all of you who put the time in on these rosters.

Too the Brents ( Willard), I will keep your son and your entire family in my prayers. My wife and I do all we can to give our tithe to God each week, so I will make sure that the Ronald McDonald house is a place we give too. Places like the RMH are wonderful places and so much for kids, and the people who work there are amazing people. God works miracles thru those places and those people that work there.

They're all crazy.....its a global pandemic

# 165 Herschie @ 04/13/15 04:12 AM

I wasn't going to restart my season with these, but I decided that the progress I had made wasn't realistic enough, and I wanted to start a season with more challenging settings. So this works. Thanks.

# 166 hysteria499 @ 04/13/15 06:25 AM

These rosters are simply amazing every year. I don't start my franchise without them. Or my RTTS for that matter really. Thank you everyone who was apart of them for doing this for the community!

Dang that sucks man. i have a girlfriend that will freak out over nothing but if she tried to tell me what I could or couldn't do in terms of playing my ps4 I would flip out. She knows not to mess with my sports gaming. Tell her to deal with it and put her head under the blanket lol.

# 170 Motown @ 04/13/15 08:26 AM

It was an absolute pleasure to do CAPS for these rosters & fellaz. I got to do what I really enjoy doing, & that's creating faces. Thanks to Knight, Willard,Teeds,Ridin,The Doc,& anyone I missed for joining this AMAZING team.

We did one hellava job...& more to come.(Hybrid Rosters)

Question: If i start a chise and DO NOT do 30 team or CPU roster control, will the cpu automatically put the "injured" guys back into their MLB roster? For some guys that are only on the 15 day DL I dont want to see them sit in A ball all season.

# 172 ch46647 @ 04/13/15 09:32 AM

It would be great to get an injury free roster. Probably easier for most of us to put guys we want to list as "injured" into A ball, rather then identify who is hurt for each team and bring them back onto the roster and have to take someone else off, etc.

# 173 RD_Rabin @ 04/13/15 09:35 AM

Great job on the Roster. Plenty of hard work put in by everyone who contributed, and the last push at the weekend was impressive to see.

Thanks, guys.

Thank you !

I'd like to know this as well.

# 176 kcmc96 @ 04/13/15 09:44 AM

For those people that want injury free rosters but still want to have all the accurate minor league players, i recommend downloading one of the 40 man rosters, such as by ajblithe20 under the psn name SimplyAJB. This means when you start a franchise guys like yu darvish will be brought up to the MLB and 40 man roster (and later the 25 man) but you also get all the minor league players that these guys have been working on.

Someone please correct me if im wrong but this appears to work as i stated when i tested the different rosters in franchise.

Also thanks for all the great work to the guys who made this all happen.

+1 Good question...

I started my Pirates franchise last night and G. Polanco suffered a broken leg in Spring Training. He's expected to make a recovery in the next 2-3 weeks -- will he be automatically called back up to re-fill his role if I did not select 30 team or CPU roster control? Thanks again fellas! GREAT work!

GREAT work!

Polanco was in MLB before he was injured and put on the dl in the game so he will go back to the MLB and they will send someone down.

Players that are placed in A will only be called up if a player at there position gets injured out traded at which point the CPU looks for the highest rated player in that position on the 40 man roster to recall to replace them. If no suitable replacement is on the 40 man, they will then move the highest rated player not in the 40 man to the 40 man and bring them up as a replacement.

Once the injury has run it's course it will send down the lower rates player, whether it's the replacement our the player who was injured.

Yeah that's how it works with the correct 40 mans. I like starting injury free so it's the way to go for me!

First I want to say thank you, love the rosters and you guys busted your ***, just a awesome job. As a Rays fan though, little disappointed Honeywell, Varga and Rondon all top twenty, Honeywell a top ten, are not on the roster. I get Rondon he isn't 17 yet so min age is 18 but Honeywell is a top ten prospect. If he could be included in future releases in place of Mikey Obrein or Sappington, would appreciate it. Thanks again , it's nitpicking from me but I love the rosters.
