OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Retired Numbers Can't Be Used Even by Actual Player That Had the Number?

I've searched the forums to find that retired numbers can't be un-retired (which is dumb IMHO) as it can lead to issues.

One such issue that I've run into is when using historical players. For example, I've just added Derek Jeter to the New York Yankees and I can't give him #2. WTF?!

Is this a huge oversight with OOTP Baseball, or am I doing it wrong?

Any advice or a workaround is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
