Unfortunately, that's not the only way to create that. It also happens when you manually change minor league affiliations. Here's an example:

Your major league has 4 teams, Major-A through Major-D. You add a Triple-A league, followed by a Double-A league. Now, imagine OOTP auto-affiliated your Triple-A teams like this:

AAA-1 --- Major-A
AAA-2 --- Major-B
AAA-3 --- Major-C
AAA-4 --- Major-D

If you try to switch affiliations for Major-A and Major-B, one team will temporarily have two AAA affiliates, e.g. the first change would lead to:

AAA-1 --- Major-B
AAA-2 --- Major-B
AAA-3 --- Major-C
AAA-4 --- Major-D

and the second to:

AAA-1 --- Major-B
AAA-2 --- Major-A
AAA-3 --- Major-C
AAA-4 --- Major-D

When you start the game, Major-B will display its affiliates in the wrong order, i.e. the Double-A team first, while Major-A will be okay. Major-C and Major-D are okay, too, of course, because you didn't change anything for them.

The problem seems to be that, for a moment, Major-B's affiliate chain was (AAA-2, Double-A team, AAA-1), and when removing AAA-2, the game doesn't move AAA-1 into its spot.

well now that makes much more sense.... This has got to be fixed. However, its basically being ignored by everyone in every thread about it.
