Why can't this bug be squashed? I'm using 1.02 final, I have a fictional league with 5 levels of minors, and one of the rookie teams has only 7 players, all of them pitchers.

Yes, I know all of the workarounds, I've been doing them since May 31, but it's really irritating to continue to have to artificially fill an AI's rosters.

I guess my reaction to the whole thing has become, "Yes, I now know that Scranton has an illegal number of players. Now, go tell the GM of the Washington Nationals that he needs to fill his stupid rookie team and quit bothering me." Why do I, the GM of one organization, have to handle a problem with another organization? Isn't that what the computer GM of that organization is supposed to do? Particularly since there are a couple of hundred available free agents, that team has plenty of cash, and the other four levels of the organization's minors have full rosters. There has to be some way for it to fill a legal line-up.

Now I'm going to go click the "Fill this team with fictional players" button, and resume play.
