Also, I have my scouting set to Very Low, so this may also be a factor, and have overall ratings based on AI. I have no idea how these settings might be affecting such odd displays in the player profile or if they have any effect, at all....just saying what mine are.
I don't use scouting at all. Now the Cubs are starting Whitaker at 2B with no rating and some guy named Tomball with no ratings at SS. Looks like I will scrap random debut and play fictional.
