10.29 First game played same as draft day [Fixed 10.34]

[jonnymo]

While investigating 10.19 After Draft Auto-Sort AI, I discovered this bug, which may or may not be part of the one reported there.

This applies to both games continued from earlier versions and those started in 10.21, for both historical and fictional players. Some players (I can't find any similarities between them, nor differences from players who do not suffer from the bug) play an imaginary game at the major-league level immediately after the conclusion of the draft.

Case in point, SP Alex Anay, the first-round pick (5th overall) by the San Diego Padres in the 1999 amateur draft. His pitching record shows one career ML appearance which, according to his game log, happened on 1 June (the same day as the draft) at home against the Angels. However, the Padres were in Philadelphia that day, where Charles Nagy got the start.

It was one I did report there.

Ah, now I see it. But, your screenshot didn't match the reported problem.

The referenced thread is a good one, but it reports three different, possibly unrelated bugs:

• newly-drafted players assigned to too-high a level;
• overall ratings calculated incorrectly;
• single imaginary game at ML level (also reported in this thread).

Yeah, I realized that, and posted a screenshot later in the thread.

Huh. I've been playing since 1999, and I never noticed that. Thanks, Houston!

Oops! I get all of you youngsters confused.

Still in 10.22.

Strange. This player played in the playoffs the same day he was drafted (june). Then, he went to the minors...

I think this was mentioned in this topic;

[HoustonGM]

On a related note, if a pleyr played MLB at a very young age (16 or 17) and then gets included in a historical draft, that player will have phantom Major LEague stats. This is an OLD often reported issue.
