I looked through the thread and didn't see these issues, so I'll post them here. Both have to do with the PBP.

First, while playing an MLB quickstart (several years into the future), I noticed that some of my players were described as having the wrong batting average in the PBP. I wasn't sure why that was, but then I had a player who had only been in the majors for a week or two come up to bat. It had his average wrong, and it also said that he's hit 11 HR this year. I checked his minor league stats, and sure enough, he had 11 HR in the minor leagues. I assume, therefore, the reason for the inaccurate batting average is that it is combining major/minor league stats (and yes, the BA it mentioned was in between his major and minor league averages). I'm not sure if this is intentional, but that would be an odd thing to say in play by play without specifically stating that it included minor league stats.

The second item is that I am playing the Twins and I traded for Evan Longoria in the middle of the season. When I played the Rays later in the year, the PBP said that he had hit 9 HRs against the Rays. I checked and he hadn't hit any against the Rays, but he had hit 9 HRs before the trade while he was playing for the Rays.
