This problem is what usually happens when you get these minor league guys wanting to latch on to a big leaguer, for a free ride to the show. They get themselves a fake MLB ID, in an effort to get past the gatekeepers. Not on my watch. I'll have a look, and see if I've managed to crush them all. I know for a fact that I've already done the same thing for Hampton, and Martin above. Checking for duplicates in those two columns now.
