Just noticed this - trading of recently drafted players - settings of Immediate, Off-season, 1 year. Nice!!!
(hope the Immediate was just introduced or i've missed it for a while ....

It was just introduced in this most recent patch.

Hopefully it works, because the game has needed it for a while.

NM For some reason I have to patch again.

Immediate was actually in before. The options used to be immediate or 1 year. The new option was "next off-season", which more closely models the current rules.

It may have been in before, but I left the box "Allow trading of recently drafted players" unchecked in every game I played, and they were seemingly included in every trade I looked at, so it was in but it was not functioning well. Hopefully now it will function as intended.

Still not working:

November 1st, 1904: Dave Cash drafted by New York Giants

December 16th, 1904: Giants send Rene Gonzales and Dave Cash to Tigers for Luis Olmo

This is with "Trading of Recently Drafted Players" set to: 1 year

I don't mind it too much, but I can see where others would and it should be working as intended.

Also, December 4th, 1904: Pirates send recently drafted SS Phil Lewis to the Athletics.

In my MLB league, I can acquire players drafted out of high school despite the 1-year setting. However, players drafted out of college work as intended.
