OK, I believe I figured out what is happening (at least based on my feeder league settings.
My Feeder settings:
- HS Max age 18
- Draft eligibility=When max age is surpassed
Important Dates
- 6/17/59-3/13/2060 [19th Birthdays] DNP 2060 HS season
- 3/15/2060 (begin HS Season)
- 3/18/60-5/28/60 [19th birthdays] Played 2060 HS season
- 5/24/2060 (End HS Season)
- 6/5/2060 MLB Draft
So what has happened is that any player who met the "Draft Eligibility" before the upcoming HS season (for me they turned 19 before the next[2060] HS season) did NOT play in the 2060 HS season(not eligible) and were drafted in the 2060 draft and failed to sign. They go onto College and play the next college season[2061] and their stats history shows a year skipped [2060].
Players who did not turn 19 until after the start of the HS season played in the HS season. Once in College their stat history does not show a missed season.
So that is what is happening. Next is to figure out what age settings I need to use to avoid this if it can be avoided.
