You guys should put stuff like the Turner rehab assignment and Kershaw sim game on here. It’s useful information and I don’t feel like it’s out of he scope of MLBTR (it’s not like you have to put how they did in the game). It’s not really worth a full article but a mention here would be nice, and aren’t rehab assignments kind of roster moved in that they have to be sent to MLB? Otherwise great job with this, as usual

Actually “greatdingdong”, rehab assignments don’t always mean a roster move is coming. All it means is that they are hopefully on their way back. It can take one rehab start, or several, either way, doesn’t always mean a roster move is coming. GoldenJabs, I agree with you!

Friendly feedback is always welcome, especially on a new and daily feature like this. It’s possible that some limited number of roster-related notes could be added. I’ll mention the idea to Jason. But it is quite a job to compile all this info as it is.
