Playing a Reds M2O and it's driving me insane that the game hasn't called-up Aristides Aquino for me...

Seriously!
I need a right-handed power-bat so bad yet they've only tried calling up starting pitcher Jose Lopez when all five of my pitchers (Bauer, Castillo, Gray, DeSclafani, and Wade Miley) in my rotation are doing excellent. It is maddening!
Plus, I love Aquino's stance/swing.

Yeah I wish they gave us more GM authority in that mode. It has potential and that could significantly help keep people engaged.

I remember before they actually showed the game, they made it sound like you would have the freedom to call-up and send down players on your team freely. I was so disappointed when I found out how it actually was and I still don't understand why they don't allow it.
I feel like the perfect way to not disturb any systems they have in place is to like allow an allotted amount each time you start up a new M2O. I don't think there is any possible way that this way has the potential to break the system or cheat something in any form.

They absolutely should provide more roster/lineup control. Also, which rosters does the mode use? The live rosters? I noticed you can't use rosters you create.

I completed the mto with the reds and only got to use him as a Sept callup

Man, that is so frustrating! I would much rather have Aquino up than Phillip Ervin and definitely up over Josh VanMeter and Kyle Farmer.

I agree. This could be combined with a franchise setting. Maybe you start mto with control of AAA call ups and a handful more trades. Then bounce into franchise if you wanted in the following season

Completely agree with this, he's better than all those guys

same sort of thing happened with me, played with the White Sox and they wouldn't call up Kopech

It was the end of May when they let me make callups to replace Farmer and Schebler with VanMeter and The Predator.
Hang in there. My dynamic difficulty MTO is into divisional round up 2 - 0 over the Nats. Moose, Eugenio, Castellanos all had 35+ HRs...
Makes me sad thinking of how good the Redlegs would have been this year.

Man I was so excited for this year, been a reds fan my entire life. It's disappointing what happened this year.

I agree. My hope for an actual season is fading. I have been enjoying Trevor Bauer's YouTube videos though. Also, Momentum has been staging "live at-bats" in the AZ desert. Derek Dietrich has done it a few times... You should check it out... Better than nothing.
Go Reds!

They called up Madrigal for me in September and quickly became my starting second baseman before somehow not making the playoff roster. With the Rays, I made a trade where Jose Martinez was somehow sent down and I started to freak before checking the roster through trade management.
