AI roster mgmt problems????

DanDiaz · 12-07-2009, 03:37 PM

Ok,

Left Tor for Hou becasue the team was so dominate it got boring, I luv fixer uppers. It is 1st day of new off season in November

1st thing the AI did with my old TOR team was send seven players to the minors, putting 4 on waivers and losing three. Then called up 6 and signed one to replace them.

Among those sent down was a 21 game winner (the one from my rule 5 post, and the CY young winner), a 33 HR hitter (.311 avg) , and some other solid players.

the 21 game winner was replaced with a 31yr old journeyman starter. All 7 players were replaced by inferior players with 3 replaced by far inferior players.

I never had this problem with OOTP9, is this just an OOTP 10 thing (1st week in the switch). Can there be another patch that tells the AI not to replace 20 game CY Young winners not making much with journeyman pitchers, or keep the 30+ hr guys in the majors.

Anyone else having these problems?

Ok, played the next month, Tor left the CY Young winner unprotected in the rule 5 draft. I am weak, I took him. Tried not to, I might just eliminate the R5 draft altogether

The AI lets star young players become FAs, in standard game, Nov 2011, there were 10-15 young FA 24-26 who were studs, no MLB time all AAA, and all looking for 2 years 1-5 to 3 mil per, all had stud raitings.

I guess I will have to ignore them too.

This sounds like a localized issue--I've never had this problem.

Echo the above post. Are you using a quick-start or roster set? Something's amiss here.

Concur. Between this and the Rule 5 thread there's clearly something wrong with that particular league.

Sweed · 12-07-2009, 07:59 PM

Between your two posts something isn't right in your league. Not sure what it would be as I've never seen the issues you are having.

AI roster evaluation settings ie ratings\current\last yr\2yrs ago?

Also is AI set to favor prospects in trading? This probably would have no effect but perhaps it makes the AI hang onto more young guys.

Also makes me wonder about league finances. Do teams, for the most part, turn a profit and have money to keep their players?

DanDiaz · 12-08-2009, 06:10 AM

OK, hope you guys are right.

Fresh install, latest patch, added padres fan mod to get rosters.
Didn't change standaard financies, should I.

I left AI roster Eval untouched,
Trading hard, favor prospects.

How can I fix this, my league is getting boring, as too many great players are avilable???

playball335 · 12-08-2009, 02:34 PM

Which mod have you installed? As suggested in your R5 thread, I would create stock league and then see if the problem persists.

Malleus Dei · 12-08-2009, 04:42 PM

Do not get rosters! Create your own!

Got your PM and really don't have any answers for you. I was throwing out some things that you could check hoping you might see something that didn't look right.

This is a very good suggestion and probably the best place to start.

DanDiaz · 12-10-2009, 06:20 AM

Thanks for everyones help,

I tried a fresh instal, no mods, started new major league game, latest patch.

The same players are avail in rule 5 draft.

Example Neftali Feliz, SP I think he was in AAA with Oakland. I have tried , with two different teams, and not even taking a team and allowing the go to play with all AI managers, and he is always avail after year 2 or 3 in R5 draft. He is perhaps the best SP in my game and will win 17-20 games if healthy. Why not protect him,

Is he avail in anybody elsel R5 draft after year 2 or 3??

Rule 5 is crap in historical leagues and has been for me in the last 2 versions. I turn it off, always.
