I use manager mode also. I sim regular season and manage playoff games. In the playoff games, I don’t notice high foul ball rates. The most I notice is any count that goes 3-1 always goes to 3-2 because the batter always fouls off the pitch.

I haven’t encountered this issue with the players automatically added to 40 man and I’ve gone through 15 offseasons. I’ve had 2 issues that were new to MLBTS25, submitted tickets and both were resolved. I do agree that it would be nice if it were clear whether the FA being signed is getting a major or minor league deal. Usually when I’m signing unranked FA, I’m signing players that have never been in the majors because I’d rather pay 60k for a seat filler rather than 780k.

Most of my prospects grow 3-5 OVR annually. Sometimes as low as 1 but I’ve had one grow 8 in one season. Make sure they’re in lineup everyday.

I’m 6 seasons in. Lots of injuries all around. I vary the injury slider between 5 & 6.

I agree the club options and backload/frontloading would be nice to have back. Not sure what you mean about not signing lower level players. Anybody outside of top 150 FAs can be signed immediately in offseason.I agree trade logic still needs work, so until that is corrected it would be nice to have a commissioner mode that would require approval on all trades.

If the minor league stats remained visible after each season, we could update player ratings on our own for those breakout candidates.

Traded player’s salaries are being moved to the new team in whole rather than pro-rated for the amount of time spent with each team. This wasn’t an issue in MLBTS24 and prior. Already reported to SDS so hopefully fixed on future patch.

Actually in real life you don’t know how much other teams are bidding, so I wish the game had a toggle to hide this information.
