expansion / trade / Fa q.

I'm not sure if this belongs here or in newbie, so I'm putting it in both and I'll delete one when I fig out the answer!

I'm using the 08 version of cubby's rosters. Trading is set to Avg frequency, Hard setting. I just noticed i've been playing w/ commish mode on. waviers off, 40 man on.

I did an expansion draft, and immediately placed all of my younger players on the the trade block. I never received a single offer from the AI, although I successfully offered a few. At the trade deadline, I noticed absolutely no AI trades. In the next winter, Free Agency, absolutely NO AI Free Agent signings. Other teams seem to have sufficient cash.

I feel like I have something set wrong....any ideas?

The expansion draft is kooky anyway. I ran one recently and the AI team took pitchers for each of the first 17 rounds or so, then in free agency outspent almost everyone and still lost nearly 100 games.

With Cubbyfan's set, you have to set the AI back in control of all teams; as shipped, all teams are under human control, so you won't see any activity unless you make it happen yourself.
