No Votes for ROY, but 4th in MVP

I'm not sure if this is a bug or just a quirk; in 1966 I have Tommie Agee on an NL team, so obviously he won't be the AL Rookie of the Year, but he got no votes in the NL ROY voting even though his .287 with 46 steals (among other good stats) was good enough for fourth place in the MVP balloting. Just sayin'...

He imports into the game in 1962. Over those 4 years did he accumulate enough service time to lose his eligibility by the time your in-game sim reached '66? Or was it a historic transaction/lineup game that would have controlled for that? That was my first thought anyway... I assume you didn't vote yourself and see the eligible players.

Sorry for the delay in responding, which is surprising on 2 counts: I look to see if anyone answers my questions (or what's the point) and when I see your name I generally read your comments. In answer to this, Agee came up for 7 games and 11 plate appearances in '62 and 5 games as a defensive replacement and pinch-runner in '65, never coming to bat. I can't be certain of his service time though, so it's possible as you say he did amass enough major league time to pass rookie status.
