Roki Sasaki missing from WBC roster.

Roki Sasaki is not on the list to chose WBC roster for Japan. Are they going to do an update. He is one of the best pitchers in the world. When can I expect to see an update to take care of it?

OOTP doesn't have a license for the (Japanese League Name Here), so until he comes to the US, or they're able to acquire it, he won't be included.

The WBC is for all intents and purposes a deprecated feature. Without the various leagues (or templates to replace them) that used to populate it, it is not something that should be attempted anymore. Sorry to disappoint.

That's really unfortunate. I would love to play with those teams. Is it possible to populate the Japanese and other unlicensed leagues with fake names and correct stats?

They have added to the WBC and even have a day to conform roster. Of course, they have all of the players from the MLB teams. They also have a list of other players and also a list of "ineligible" players. The stats it seams are from previous WBC games. The WBC I think is under the MLB umbrella and I think Sasaki played last year.

Back in the old days you could always find custom leagues that would have all the real players. I assume if you look you might find updated Japan/Korea leagues.

Sasaki played for Japan in the WBC. Other players from Japan list the stats from the WBC. I think the WBC is under the MLB umbrella so if you don't show the pro team or league, just the WBC player under the MLB. I think it should be O.K.. They may be just making new players for the non MLB players, but why whould they have to?

I think the stat line from that league might be a problem. I think that is why they only show WBC stats when you play the WBC tournament. The name should be ok if they played in a WBC game because I think the WBC is owned by MLB, unless the players union rights for the WBC go to the non WBC league players union they belong to.
You might be able to convert a league they no longer have from an older version of OOTP. You would have the stadiums and logos. Then find a new players posting. You could also play with the old players delete them and have the AI generate new players and say yes to players from the chosen flag will get you players with names from there. Add a minor league and have the players made with the names from Japan or other. I guess I could edit another Japanease player into Roki Sasaki, but would like to see the ratings to make a good copy of a player that at 22 years old can arguably be the most dominating pitcher in the world.Back to back no hitters and all those K's. He may be the 1st pitch a perfect game and strke out everyone.

Thanks, there should be some out there but they might have to be compatible with 25 or close enough to import. The problem might be that OOTP has just recently stopped so there was no need. Korea's KBO is still fully installed updated on OOTP 25.

Kinda pointless when the history and stats would stop in 2021. Otherwise if you don't care about that it's easy enough to do
