OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - AI making roster moves even with box ticked

It is not "as in real life".

In real life players without option years remaining do NOT have to clear waivers to move off the spring training roster back to the minors. By automatically putting all 40-man players on the spring training roster the GM is left with no option in some cases but to irrevocably waive (and therefore risk losing) 40-man players with no option years remaining.

This could be fixed in one of two ways:

1) Not having the AI automatically put all 40-man players on the active roster for spring training and allowing GMs to decide; or

2) Changing the OOTP rules so that players without option years remaining can be demoted after spring training without clearing waivers.

It would also be nice if we could have non-roster invitees to spring training.
