Roster cutoff date?

Anyone know when it was? I want to start an MLB game and know I probably have to make a few moves to get it up to opening day. What date should I start at? Thanks.

The intention was to make the set cutoff opening day. That being said, there are always some outliers to be addressed. For example, if a player is DFA 9 days before opening day, and then gets released and picked up by a second team. Do you put him with the first team, free agent, or second team? What if a player gets traded for a PTBNL prior to OD, then the PTBNL goes to the new team 1 day after OD?

Anyway, aside from these oddities, I've not noticed many issues with players in this set on thye wrong team.
