Hey guys,
I have a question for those of you that use historical rosters from the vault in Franchise mode.
I came across Great Whale's 40 man set of 2001 rosters right before I left on vacation (great set by the way). I would love to start a franchise with this set but a lot of the minor leagues are full of "Joe Randoms" that are rated at zero.
Once you start a franchise do those players all retire and fade out after the first year? Do they end up making the Majors and effect the season?
I would love to hear from any of you that use these types of rosters. Your advice and insight is much appreciated.
Thanks.
