It was determined that it was an issue with the MLB Quickstart. I actually am not using a quickstart but generated a new custom game with MLB setup and all fictional players. I did not install Questdog's name file until several years into the sim (through re-importing the names database). I never really saw a solution posed for this, just that quickstart games don't play nice with mods like this. Am I out of luck? If so, if I restore the original names.txt and first_names.txt files and then re-import again, will this issue go away, albeit with the inferior default names file?

Thanks for any help!
I have never experienced this myself, so I cannot offer definitive suggestions. Try reimporting my names again, first. If I can reproduce this, I'll let you know what I figure out.
