It is not necessary to read all the documentation to enjoy the game.
But if you have questions this is the place to find answers.

Features:
- Add New Positions to Prospects: It is now possible to add new positions to minor league prospects during their development period. Their quality at new positions is determined by their primary position and its rating. So not every player can play every position well. You can find the feature implemented in the player profile page. It costs $5M in cash for each added position.
Refinements:
- Pitcher Overuse & Injuries: Overused pitchers were suffering excessive, severe injuries. Dialed the severity back so that overused pitchers, while still highly prone to injuries, won’t suffer season-ending injuries as frequently.
- Injuries Applied to Ratings: Rather than every aspect of a player’s game being negatively affected by every injury, each injury now targets one or more specific ratings. Examples: A Viral Illness will affect all ratings, while a Strained forearm will affect only Arm Strength, and Pitch Ratings.
- All existing injuries have been removed from players to start the new season.
Fixes:
- Compounding Injuries: Because we run five days of games each cycle, some players were getting injured on day one, then being played on day two, while still injured from day one. Playing injured only increases the risk of injury, and some of these players were suffering compounding injuries, leading to an unrealistic 2 to 3 injuries per cycle of games, and leaving them severely injured. This has been adjusted to prevent compounding injuries within a cycle of games.
- SIM Trades & Backup Players: SIM GMs were increasingly rejecting trades because the quality of a player was found to be unacceptable. This targeted backup-quality players, oftentimes ones a SIM team was in need of. Refactored this a bit to (hopefully) make those players more acceptable to SIM GMs.
