To be fair, OOTP doesn't get around it very well. Especially when you run a lot of leagues together.

It's not such a pain in OOTP when you just have MLB, but I've found when trying to add college, independents, etc. to an MLB universe it can very quickly become a real mess, picture wise.

You get five Chris Jones' or something, then two have the same middle initial, you have to change not only the picture name, but the name in game, you have to figure out which pic goes to which player, then once next years roster files come along, you have to do it all over again.

Considering that FHM does run a lot of leagues together, far more than OOTP ever would...

I honestly think the EHM-FHM way is better, if more trouble in some ways.
