They don't just start aging when other talent enters the league, they start aging as soon as they hit 24 (or within a month or two of hitting it).
One quick question (and apologies if it sounds dumb)- are you sure the players are actually regressing, or is it just that their ratings relative to MLB (or whatever the league name is) are dropping? Like, has the Commish tracked players in the Editor to confirm that the underlying ratings all drop immediately/shortly after turning 24?
