Problem with new patch???

This is still a bit preliminary, but are signs point towards a big flaw in the new patch.

It seems when you are simming a bunch of seasons that the collective ERA (in league history) starts to climb. I wanted to start my own "back history" of the league and so started the simming in 1955 and was going to start playing in 2009, so it would have a filled out league history. Before I did that, I ran some trial runs with the league totals to get the 4.4 era I was looking for along with a league BA around 260 or so. It started out fine, but over the course of about 30-40 seasons of simming, the ERA started to escalate and by the end of 40 seasons, it had escalated from 4.4 to nearly 5.0. I don't remember seeing this problem in the previous patch, but noticed it right away after implementing the new one. Has anyone else come across this problem? I am going to downgrade my patch to the older one to see if that alleviates the problem once I sim another 20 seasons to see if the ERA continues to climb. Any help would be great...
