Where the hell is Jim Palmer?

OK, I think I need some help in reading the Lahman database.

I've played 1963-1966 and not seen Palmer come into the league. What on earth is happening?

Hmmm. Found him in the '64 draft using the default master.csv

But I could never get him to show using the GAMBO DB. Can someone explain why?

He imports in 1963 as a rookie in my database. Don't know what the issue could be.

Thanks - that would be it. I did a 1964 league with your DB, and a 1963 league with the default db. So that explains the issue.

Question: if I set the minimum age in the league to 17 (for a historical league, obviously), would that delay the year the players enter? For example, would Bench come in a year later at 17 instead of 16?

Maybe Palmer was hanging out with Waldo and Carmen Sandiego.

Sorry, had to do it.

Honestly, I didn't get that for a minute or so. I'm a little slow at times, I guess.

Anyhow, one good one deserves another...

Come here a sec -

You know, I've created several '63 leagues with your database and he never imports.

Looking at the Gambo 1.75 pure DB, he should import in '63. I also took a look at Garlons DB and Lahman 5.4, and for both of those DB's it looks like Jim would import in '65
