What gives?

I have both historical rookies options selected in the league setup

Wild guess here. Are you using the 2012 Lahman DB released Dec 2012?

If not, then starting "historical" in 2011 means you have nothing for 2012. There are no historical rookies in the database because 2012 had not been played yet. Real time rosters are provided from a roster set which is a totally different animal than a historical database. As indicated the Lahman DB was just completed approx 3 months ago.

If you did use the 2012 version then I don't know what to say.
