International Free Agents

Question: How come sometimes when international free agents enter your free agent market, some of them are all ready signed by teams? How can they find these players before they become available or are created?

I've never seen that. Are you sure you didn't miss the start of the international free agents signing period?

i've seen it happen too. It's very annoying. What I think happens is when the day rolls over, the FA are created, the AI teams make their offer, and the FA accepts it. That will seem like the AI signed the player before you could see them. What should happen is that player should not accept offers the same day they are made

Its not the international amateur free agents. Its on the day free agency starts. You get a message in your mail saying International players entering free agency or something similar and it gives a list of players who were generated and entered. When you look through the list of players some of them (not all) are already signed to a major league team.
