Braves called up #4 Joe Mather yesterday and he PH tonight but not showing on team roster. We updated the rosters before the game and he wasn't there.

We do our updates between 5:30 and 6:00 am every morning. We also keep a history of each daily update. Joe Mather was not on the official roster with this morning's update (took place at 5:43am PST).

In fact, we checked right now and ESPN still does not have #4 Joe Mather on the active roster as of 9:13pm PST:

We get our data from the same place this link gets its data.

If this ever happens, you can always add the player manually to continue scoring the game, and chances are the next day the player will be added to the roster. You can then use Merge on the Player List to combine your manually added player with the "official" MLB player.

This would be very rare that ESPN has not been notified of an active roster change.

I added him to last nights' game lineup this morning. I did find his name in the player list, and selected that player to add to game roster and changed the sub in the pitch by pitch then copied lineup to roster.
