Problem with calculating free agency eligibility

In our league, we are having problems with the game saying that a player will be a free agent after the season instead of being re-newed. Our settings are 5 years to be a free agent and 98 days make a service year, 111 days in a regular season.

Take a look at Gardas in my screenshot. He's got 46 days this year and 4 yrs, 43 days for his career. Clearly when he hits 98 days this year, he will not reach 5 years. He will fall 3 days short. So he will not be a free agent after this season.

I have a feeling it has something to do with the game not recognizing that the clock stops at 98 days and calculating it through the end of the season.

The interim season calculations may not always be accurate, but at the end of the season they will have the correct status.
