Is there any way to write in a player for your all-star ballot?

drksd4848 · 05-26-2024, 12:41 PM

I know you can manually select the entire all-star team, but I have player who is having a great season, has a well known popularity, and meets the criteria for being on the ballot but isn't? Is there any way to put him on mine? Also, without adjusting the popularity settings (I like that popularity has an influence(

Can you not just manually select him anyways?

Still have the same question. I have a starting pitcher leading league in wins, best stats on my team, he's not on the ballot.

If you are in commish mode then you can go to where the All-Star voting is done and there should be a manual ballot that you can decide who makes the team.

If you are not in commish mode then you cannot change this.

You could always put yourself in commission mode
I am not in front of my computer, but isn't there an option under rules, or options to allow human managers to vote on awards. Maybe turning that on can help.

The responses are appreciated but do not address the original question. I know I can manually select the all-stars -- that's different than what is being asked. I signed a pitcher out of Japan and he is dominating the AL (8-0, 1.61), leads AL pitchers in wins, WAR, and is third in SO, 3rd in IP despite my using a 6-man rotation. My #6 starter is 2-3 with an ERA above 5, and appears on the ballot. My #3 (6-2, 3.60), my #5 (6-4, 3.67) do NOT appear on the ballot, despite working more innings than the #6. So, the question, STILL (if anyone from OOTP is actually monitoring this thread) is how can I add a player to the all-star ballot, or, failing that, write that player in?

This seems to be one of the many, obvious, simple fixes that would greatly improve the game.
