AI trading players and then releasing days later
 

I had several AI trades before the 2016 season, including Giancarlo Stanton for Chris Davis (several other players involved, too.) A few days after the trade, everyone was released. It happened for a few other trades, too.

What type of league? I thought the current day roster set was based on opening day. Is this an ongoing league from v16? Can you show screenshots?

No. OOTP17. It was just a regular out-of-the-box 2016 startup with the latest patch. Had all of the leagues involved (Japanese, Korean, Independent, etc.) so it starts in mid-March.

Did it for some other trades, too. Here's the transactions for a few days.

Thanks. This is what my out of the box 2016 startup done less than 15 minutes ago shows.

The big question is, why are they different?:confused:

Never mind. I figured it out - had a setting messed up with team control. My fault - feel free to delete thread. :o

Pretty sure I was in control of everybody (not trades but active roster moves) and when they were traded I didn't assign them in the organization so they were released.

If you start with all the leagues involved, like the Japenese and Korean leagues, it starts in mid-March. If it's just MLB it's April 1.

I'm confused.:confused:

What does team control have to do with different start dates in the MLB Quickstart?

Please explain more. This thread should not be deleted.

When you're setting up a league, it has all the boxes that you can check so you can include the different leagues like Japanese, Korean, etc. If you check all of them the game starts in mid-March instead of April 1 because a few of the non-MLB leagues start earlier.

OK. That has nothing to do with team control AFAIK. It's a different QS called "majors".

I'll run this QS until opening week but not until tomorrow. Sorry.

I just created a fictional league and have noticed this happen.

I have some options turned off like waivers but do have the 40 man and 1 level of minors and financials on.
In these trades they have been 1 for 1 so the new player just slots in to the 40 man to replace the other player.

When I noticed this I went into commissioner mode and edited the players to be on the teams they got traded to and they stayed.
