Free Agent listing

I jumped from OOTP4 to OOTP6 so I'm not sure when this was changed over exactly, but in OOTP4 I really liked the fact that on your team page at the bottom it listed all the upcoming free agents you were going to have for that year. It made it easy to just click on them and resign them if you wanted. Now you have to etiher check out your league salary page, or click on Salary Info on the rosters page and sort to see who will be a free agent. OR you can click on "Potential Free Agents" for the whole league, but that currently takes a little longer since it loads up the ID info on everyone.

Is it possible to go back to the way it was in OOTP4 where it was real easy to see a list of free agents on your team?

Not to knock your idea/suggestion, but is it really that troublesome to click on the "Salary Info" link to see who's going to be an FA?

I prefer the way it is because you also get to find out who's arbitration eligible, who might become an FA depending on how many more days they need, and who's an automatic resign. It also shows you minor league FA's. A lot of good and useful information.

No its not hard at all. I guess I just liked the format of the OOTP4 where you were constantly reminded that you had free agents coming up and who they were.

You bring up a good point with arbitration and all that. I'm sure that is part of the reason the format was changed as in OOTP4 I don't believe there was arbitration.
