Able to hire a 1-year-old scout in Historical Challenge

This is not game-breaking by any means, but I was able to hire a 1-year-old Bobby Jay in 1967, which I'm fairly sure is not intended. Good for a laugh, though

no respect for the baby scouts in the league? guess even the new borns have to pay their dues.

they say the kids in New England are more mature, but this is ridiculous

I'd have to say he had great potential!

Error in his setup data, he had a start year set to 0 so he winds up appearing in the first season his age is a positive number (he's actually probably there when he's in the negatives, too, but the filter would always screen him out.) I'll fix his data.
