So Franchise still can't use updated roster

Yes, that is automatic but try calling up some player from AAA and see what happens. Even when you exit the 'Create' section saving the change correctly it still doesn't change the players in the Franchise that was already in progress. If this program were coded correctly the new file should write over the old file. Basic programming 101 and yet it doesn't which means they didn't program the code to do it or we'd get an error code like 'can't execute" or something. Like I said before, in my opinion this part of the program is poorly written and not user friendly.
It's working as it is designed. The players you start with are the ones you keep the entire franchise. If you expected the rosters to update, that would be a mess, right?
Let's say on day one you trade a player from your team to another team, but when the new rosters come out, he is back on your team in real life, so if you were to load that new roster, your trade would be gone.
If you want to use new rosters you need to start a new franchise, or manually edit everything. -
I was disappointed that they didn’t have last years draft picks in the minor league roster

That’s because the 2 rosters are independent of each other. Any changes to a franchise roster once you start a franchise have to be made while you are inside your franchise file. Changing anything under the create tab just changes that particular roster file. That’s pretty standard on any sport console game.

Okay then explain where in Franchise mod I can call up a player from AAA to the Majors and send one from the Majors down to AAA. No place in Franchise mode is that available unless its buried someplace in the program. Ya, you can change the lineup but only with the players shown in the first place. -

Find the player and choose move player to AAA or promote to MLB or something. I’m not at the game right now so I’m going by memory.

Red_Ted; Thanks so much, I was able to send a starting pitcher to AAA that never got past 4 innings and had a ERA you'd need a calculator for and promoted a lefty AAA pitcher. Really appreciate your help. Its the only thing I really didn't like playing my Franchise now I can move players. Have a great day

Not everybody wants to play a season with players moving all over the place. Like many in this thread I prefer the real rosters as I go through the season. Isn't it amazing that cheap and remedial RBI Baseball 21 can figure out how to update rosters automatically during the season without having to start over your season and this game can't even get the lineups and rotations to transfer unaffected when starting a Franchise? Broke AF.

Sounds like the solution for you then is go play RBI Baseball. I personally don’t or wouldn’t want to play the way you are suggesting. To each their own.

I like moving players from AAA to the majors and back depending on the player's performance. I've already sent a ineffective starter after his third start not getting past 4 1/3 innings and a very bad ERA. Bringing in a AAA starter who is doing better.
