I have seen this mentioned in other threads, but the name files seem to generate an inordinate amount of players named Joe. I checked the first name file, and "John" has a much higher frequency. However, wayyyy more Joes than John. You could field whole teams with Joes.

So, what I did was went into the name file and cut every name with a frequency in double digits in half. We will see if that changes how many Joes I get.

For now, I was deleting the Joes in the free agency market, which is a bit tedious because of the Scouting Report bug I mentioned.
