Such impressive work. Nice job. These last free agents who haven't signed must annoy the heck out of you.

*** UPDATE ***
Hey gang!!

Updated file up soon!!
This is the BIG one. I’ve went through Top 30 prospects for each team per Baseball America. Rankings will not always match up, but know I read and rated each of the 900 (!!) players accordingly.

Also…..
I’ve assigned the below free agents to teams. In real life they are still free agents however fits below make sense and will not see Pete Alonso sign with say the Marlins… which PROBABLY will not happen in real life.

Feel free to place the below as free agents if you want to match real life.

It's happening people, it's happening!!

al_bondigas · 02-05-2025, 04:15 PM

This is great, thanks a lot!

dawg1isclear · 02-05-2025, 05:07 PM

Oh, it is as done as a turkey on Thanksgiving!

CBLCardinals · 02-05-2025, 10:22 PM

Glad to see some of my predictions come true!
Columbe to MIN
Alonso back to NYM
Tim Hill to NYY

Terms are a bit off. Missed the Grichuk to ARI, but makes sense as he played there last year.

I’m out of town a few days dudes so no impending updates other than what Ami posted 2/3

Guillermo Martinez was fired as Toronto HC as well. Replacing him will be... David Popkins.

Ex-DBacks 3BC Tony Perezchica is the new 3BC for the Astros, replacing Gary Pettis. Shaun Larkin will be the new DBacks 3BC.

Andy Fox was not retained as Red Sox 1BC. Jose Flores (not added as a coach, born 1/1/1971, BBRef ID: flores003jos) will be his replacement. (Note: the game currently has him listed as being born in America with no city of birth given, but he's actually Puerto Rican, born in Cidra.)

White Sox stuff: Eddie Rodriguez and Charlie Montoyo are long gone; I think both were fired at the same time Grifol was. Justin Jirschele was promoted from managing AAA Charlotte to be the new 3BC, and Walker McKinven (not in the game at all) was hired as the new bench coach.

Replacing Jirschele in Charlotte is Sergio Santos, formerly at AA Birmingham. I haven't been able to find who Birmingham's new manager will be.

Ex-Cleveland HC Chris Valaika is the new Reds HC. Replacing Valaika for the Guards will be Grant Fink.

Tigers GM Jeff Greenberg is from Upper St. Clair, PA.

Doug Davis should be unretired and added back as manager of AAA Round Rock Express.

Marlins staff shakeup: HC John Mabry, 1BC Jon Jay, and 3BC Griffin Benedict were all let go as part of the house-cleaning at the end of the season. Pedro Guerrero (not added as a coach, born 12/3/1986, BBRef ID: guerre003ped) will be the new hitting coach. Taking over at 3BC will be ex-Reno Aces manager Blake Lalli. Tyler Smarslok (not in the game at all) will be the new 1BC.

Ozzie Timmons was not retained as Brewers HC for 2025. Replacing him is Connor Dawson.

As best I can tell, Oscar Bernard is only the *assistant* Giants hitting coach. Pat Burrell (currently retired) is the lead hitting coach.

Bryan Price resigned as Giants PC in October. Replacing him will be J.P. Martinez (not added as a coach, BBRef ID: martin004jon).

Brewers hitting coach is actually their AAA hitting coach, Al LeBoeuf and their Head Trainer actually went to the Orioles, and they hired Brad Epstein who is not in the game but I usually just edit someone inconsequential and "create" him

10000000%!!!!!!!

I could be wrong but I believe he will re/sign with Houston. A few weeks ago news came out about Altube willing to move to LF to bring him back. That would push Parades to 2B and Bregman to 3B.

With all that said I have Altuve with LF rating so OOTP could possibly match this.

JD Martinez remains a mystery to me. I placed him on Toronto to give them another bat in lineup, and might make sense there if they feel Santander is is fine in RF.

Pivetta….not sure. I could see Angels or even A’s possibly on a 2-3 year deal. I placed him on Angels for now.

SIGN ALREADY!!!! PITCHERS & CATCHERS REPORTING THIS WEEK!

tejdog1 · 02-11-2025, 10:47 PM

I have this sneaky feeling Bregman's gonna sign with the Mets.
Like... he adds so much to this team, and would give us a real shot against the Dodgers.

I've heard Houston's out of budget room.
Steve Cohen doesn't believe in that, for the right deal.

Something like a shorter term 3/105 type of deal.

Yeah national peeps believe it’s down to DET/BOS/TOR.
I still believe HOU and NYM in that mix still too. Hopefully dude signs soon

nevertou1 · 02-13-2025, 07:40 AM

Thank you for ROSTER!!!!

I want to know hot to add or designate AI manager other team not my team.

you said "BEFORE YOU START A SEASON, REMEMBER TO SWITCH TEAMS TO ALLOW CPU AI CHANGES!!!! THIS IS DISABLED TO ALLOW ME TO MOVE PLAYERS AROUND"

I dont know how to do it.

Actually, when i want to trade a player in OOTP2025 with other team, "MAKE THIS WORK NOW!" button is not activated...
and AI manager of my team offer to Free agent automatically.

I want to solve this...

can you explain me?

Go to Game ---> Game Settings ---> League Settings ---> middle column, scroll down

Button that says "Set All Teams to Allow AI Roster Changes"
