Major issues
 

So i had done some progress on my game I made it to 2029, I was having a scheduling problem where it would create games before opening day and those games wouldn't count in the standings. I saved my game and closed out of the game to see if downloading the new patch would fix the issue and now when i go back to load that game up the rosters are completely wrong, I don't have any of the players i had and all the players on my roster are all retired players with no stats or anything. I really hope I haven't lost the progress I had, if you have any help at all for this that'd be awesome.

Sounds like the file was corrupted somehow.

Can you try restoring the league from the autosave and see if that fixes things (you might lose some progress with the autosave)

1) Open the game and on the start screen, click on Settings (or Preferences in OOTP 11-14).

2) Now click on the tab "Troubleshooting".

3) Click "Open folder containing saved games".

4) Now open up the league folder you're wanting to restore.

5) Then select all of the .dat files in the folder and back them up (just in case) by copying them to a temporary folder or creating a zipped file with them

6) Open the folder called "auto-save".

7) In there, select all of the ".dat" files and copy them to the league folder (the parent of the current folder) overwriting all of the ".dat" files in the league folder.
