I play in online leagues and before OOTP15 I would routinely go through my major and minor league system and change uniform numbers that weren't "right." That almost always involved changing single-digit pitcher numbers to two digits. If playing historical, you might use more single-digit numbers for position players, or even use the old Cubs and (I believe) Astros system of catchers 1-9, infielders 10-19, outfielders 20-29 and pitchers 30-49. You wouldn't normally see a second baseman in 1952 with number 85 unless it was in spring training.
Yes, it's that important to immersion to me.
Further, before OOTP15 I was able to change my online team uni numbers, but now changing them in the player editor doesn't "stick" in my online leagues. I guess editing is turned off in online mode, so I'm stuck with pitchers with single-digit numbers.
No, not a deal-breaker, but still annoying.

Apparently this was quietly fixed in one of the updates! I was able to get a number change to "stick" in my online league this week.
Thanks, Marcus and crew! It was far from a deal-breaker but is just another example of OOTP listening to its customers!
