Is anyone else having problems with Fan Interest? Is this a bug?

I imported my historical Challenge Mode save (NY Mets) from 24 to 25 and the Fan Interest immediately dropped about 20 points, despite me being the defending WS champion.

There's nothing I can do to raise it. I traded for nationally, "Extremely Popular," ranked players and it didn't budge. The Fan Interest didn't even move after I won my second straight WS and was stuck at 68.

At least it was 68. After the latest patch (and a month of in-game playing) my fan interest has now dropped to 66 and I can't figure out why. No transactions at all and I've been in first place in my division by at least 3 games with the second best record overall in MLB.

It would be a minor annoyance except that my owner wants me to raise my Fan Interest and my attendance. I don't need to tell anyone reading this that I can't raise my attendance if I can't raise my Fan Interest.

These two points are so important to my owner that after winning that 2nd straight WS I was only offered a 1 year contract. I fear that even if I win a 3rd straight WS I could get fired.

I wish I never started this save in Challenge Mode. And there isn't any way to turn that off, is there?

Is anyone else having these types of Fan Interest problems? It's very frustrating.
