Many MLB the Show 23 players have experienced a very frustrating error message recently. Part of the Diamond Dynasty game mode is mini seasons. These are an excellent way to earn points and get better cards for your team.
However, recently, gamers have been seeing the "invalid roster" error message. Since the opponent is usually a CPU, this doesn't make any sense. It ruins the experience and takes away many players' ability to play.
There has been a patch released recently, so the issue should be slowing down. If not, there are ways to attempt to troubleshoot it.
Though there was a patch released, it only affects new seasons. Pre-existing seasons may still experience the issue.
The game developers released this statement as a response via the game's forum:
"While we were able to correct this error for new seasons, we were unable to do so for seasons that were already in progress. This means that if you started a season before today’s update, and are receiving this error message when trying to play, you will need to restart your season. We understand your frustration and apologize for the inconvenience."
If that's the case and players don't want to restart their season, they can try a few typical troubleshooting fixes:
These may or may not work and none of them are permanent fixes, but MLB the Show 23's permanent fix only helps new seasons, so these are the only real options.
