How to find who is on loan?

Biggio509 · 05-02-2022, 11:28 PM

I like to recall players on loan to the draft league when I draft them. Is there an easy way to find this. They don't show up on the roster so far I go to the transaction page and right click on all draftees and see if the loan recall is optional.

It isn't as bad for WBC since I usually just adjust the ST roster and I notice the guys who are gone during the tourney but I also haven't really found a way to find which of my players are loan at either level.

Yes I thought of that too. They should be highlighted a color or have a special symbol in the page where you see all your posters.

Seems I found an answer. I was doing minor league transactions and went to click from my rookie league to international complex to fill up my Dominican team. If you have players on loan the drop down menu has an option to show players on loan. If you don't have players on loan it disappears.

well yeah on a player by player level but if it was a field added we could create a custom view for it.

Can't screen shot until the AFL now but in this screenshot the blank space would be players on loan if my team had any.

If you click where the blank space and you have players on loan it will list them like it was a minor league team.

Oh nice thanks for the clarification

Hmmmm. So if I understand correctly, the players on loan are still included in the rosters of your various teams (where you've assigned them).
Is this correct? EDIT: Looking at this more closely, I think I was wrong. But please do read on if you have the time because I still have some other questions.

The reason I ask is that I set strict roster limits for all levels and it looks as those players on loan would still count against the roster limits for my org teams. EDIT: I think this is wrong, too.

While I'm here, I have a couple more related questions.
(I started a Reds save as my initial game while the bugs get ironed out, so it's not really important to me. By now, I normally would've decided to abort and simmed further ahead before starting a new game so I'd have a better understanding. But dang, if we aren't 22-16 after a 4-9 start and I'm enjoying myself too much right now to abort)
So here goes.....

I added all four of the 'draft' leagues AND moved the major league draft up to June 3rd. I think that combination of events will mean a lot of loaners.

How do the draft league rosters get populated? I'm at about May 18th and none are populated yet. Of course, the first league doesn't start until May 27th I think.

When you "loan" players to these leagues, do they just take them from your org?

Does time spent in the draft leagues count against their professional service time?

Can you get "loaned" players back when you need/want to?

Any insight would be greatly appreciated. But if time is a concern, no problem. I will eventually find out for myself. Might have to scrape the bottom of the barrel to round out my rookie league teams in the meantime.

I never thought anyone would be able to find the answer

It's pretty simple - sometimes you just have to ask the question on the forum and you're sure to find feedback

Seriously. I have been playing for three years (so, like a thousand games), and I learn something new - or get good strategic advice - every time I pop on here. Plus a few laughs. The developers are active, too, which is a refreshing way for a corporate culture to work. I don’t recall Bezos helping me out personally; although I swear I once got Tim Cook’s clone on an Apple call.

I always want to know how to find out who is on loan. I would love to visit over here again. This website is useful.

I totally get your struggle with recalling loaned players for your draft league. It can be a bit of a hunt sometimes!
