Player suspension ends in middle of double-header?

Orioles1966 · 09-09-2015, 01:21 PM

Does anyone know if the player gets added to the roster for the second game or does he sit out until the next scheduled game? I thought making roster changes during the games being played might cause a crash.

You can make roster changes during a game, how else would you manage if you couldn't? Just start 9 guys and leave them in no matter what?

He should be available as soon as his suspension ends as long as he's on your active roster.

Before( 2 or 3 years ago) I was told that I shouldn't make player transactions inbetween games of double-headers and eventually the game did crash. I would trade players between teams that were playing double-headers and send starting pitchers to the minors and recall a starting pitcher for a second game of double-header.

Update: The New England Patriots and California Angels are playing back to back double-headers and I just send down starting pitcher Aubrey Gatewood to the minors(using player editor) and purchased a pitcher from the minors to start the second game.

You're not making a player transaction, he's already on your active roster. There's no transaction to make. His suspension is over, simply insert him into the line-up.

Ok-thanks.

My experience (albeit not with the latest patches) is that when a player's suspension ends after the first game of a double header, he remains suspended for the second game, despite the fact his suspension has zero games remaining.

I believe that bug was fixed a few patches ago. The player should activate at the correct time now.
