Twice the hits, same old players :-)

I am having a problem in my historical league with the player career stats. Three of the players in my league (that I have found so far) are getting credit for both their in game stats and their real historical stats. When I imported in 1901, these players already had stats listed for years 1901-1910 (or so depending on the players career). When I simmed the seasons, the new stats where added to the list, but the old stats remained.

Their career page likes like:

1899 blah, blah
1900 blah, blah
1901 blah, blah
1901 blah, blah
1902
1902
etc

As a result in 1910 Willy Keeler is about to retire with 5000 hits. That will be a record for a long time.
Has anyone else had this problem, and is there a way for me to erase those lines that shouldn't be there?
I don't really want to start over since I am 10 years in, but it is really bugging me.

bump...

Anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this?

The problem comes from the fact that the Lahman database is not sorted by year. Get my resorted Lahman database (version 2). It corrects this problem. It can be found at <a href="http://www.boys-of-summer.com" target="_blank">Boys of Summer</a>

Does this mean that I am stuck with the result, or is there a way to edit the player's career stats?
