More funky stuff. Eventually today, I decided to delete the All Star game from the schedule and just proceed with the idea that for some reason the game had been cancelled. Then when looking at my closer's player card, I saw it said he had been selected to the NL squad, where previously he had not and there had been a couple of questionable reliever picks.
So I looked at the news log, and the players selected looked to be all in their proper leagues. This has me baffled.
