OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Using actual lineups from 2013 not completely accurate

M's rule - I wonder if the design for the transactions log needed to be changed so that real life transactions are more accurately reflected to include minor league promotions/demotions.

Concerning the Puig rookie issue, MLB teams seem to be holding back their future stars more and more just to retain an additional year of service. Guys like Ronald Acuna, Vlad Guerrero Jr, Bryce Harper, Kris Bryant, George Springer, and Evan Longoria were all held back - and this means OOTP will potentially have them on the roster up to a month early, possibly impacting tight races for the division (list taken from https://www.forbes.com/sites/anthony...h=2c2858f62b5a).
you mention, "because the game doesn’t take a player’s debut date into account." - wouldn't this also impact any September callups where a rookie has a hot September, but OOTP may utilize him all season?

Concerning bereavement and paternity leaves - how are those handled by the transactions log?
