Questions

Are they going to improve trading? Now it just seems a bit arbitrary. I see teams get fleeced on the regular.

Also, it's like trade deadline everyday in the majors. Seems to be trades happening with big leaguers changing teams. Is there a way they are going to make this more realistic?

For quick play, I have noticed a lot of teams give up leads late, both my opponents and myself. It seems to be quite high. Are they adjusting this, or is this something other people have noticed?

What would you adjust?

Trading seems to happen all the time, when typically it happens in the offseason and around the trade deadline. You see players changing hands in what seems to be an unrealistic manner.

Second, the trading AI seems off. I have seen many unequal trades. Now, I must qualify that by saying that it includes prospects and other players, but they don't seem to add up in terms of what one team gets vs another.

Late inning collapses. They do happen, it just seems to happen quite frequently, that's all.

You can adjust AI trading frequency and priorities. It does not make the AI smarter but it does end up doing strange deals less often.

Unequal trades happen all the time in baseball. Is it your position that equal trades should be made to happen in-game. Not sure I would like that.

I've used the Average and Neutral settings consistently since OOTP14, and while there are some trades that occur that make me go "Huh?" most trades seem to make sense for both teams involved.

I'm one of those odd ducks that turn trading off.

In a modern day league? Wow, do you play reserve clause rules as well?

I play fictional 2015 and I do have RCR enabled. I just like it when players stay with a team longer than a typical 3-4 year contract. And it's also easier to remember who is with what team. Again, I'm a weird duck.
