Minor league FAs going to ghost team.

ScottZ · 08-10-2007, 03:35 PM

The North American Baseball Alliance is using the CubbyFan23/haveband roster set and I am the Commissioner. I just received a message from my Pittsburgh Pirates owner stating that when he signs free agents to minor league contracts, the players get assigned to the Pulaski Blue Jays of the Appalachian League. Not only do the Pulaski Blue Jays not seem to exist on this roster, but I don't even have an Appalachian League.

Can somebody take a peak at this and possibly tell me what I can do to prevent this in the future? The league file can be downloaded from the website. Below is a list of players he found in Pulaski:

Monday, March 12th, 2007
Signed free agent CF J. Phillips to a minor league contract.
Signed free agent RF O. Gibson to a minor league contract.
Signed free agent CF D. Whittier to a minor league contract.
Signed free agent SS C. Moore to a minor league contract.
Signed free agent 2B I. Paredes to a minor league contract.
Monday, April 2nd, 2007
Signed free agent RF C. Guthrie to a minor league contract.
Signed free agent C A. Andrews to a minor league contract.
Tuesday, April 10th, 2007
Signed free agent C J. Hutcherson to a minor league contract.
Signed free agent SP H. Icaza to a minor league contract.
Tuesday, April 17th, 2007
Signed free agent SS D. Newkirk to a minor league contract.

Are only minor league contract players assigned to this roster? What about players signing major league contracts? What about players acquired through trade?

Could you give us a little bit more detail about how the user found players in a team's roster that doesn't exist? Did he somehow find Pulaski's roster list? Did he do a search for these players and find that they were on Pulaski due to their player profile info?

Are any other teams in your league having this problem?
