I had Kela on the bench this week because I assumed he would be traded, and the Rangers had a game last night. After being traded to the Pirates overnight, you can now start him because the Pirates haven't played. I assume there are issues with other players, too...just wanted to point it out.

We are definitely looking at this. Thanks.

Yes, the program is written to where Kela went from locked with Texas to unlocked with Pittsburgh because the Pirates didn't play on Monday. We will change that back tomorrow and reverse any moves that were made after he was already locked in. This is something we'll obviously have to address going forward, but let's get through all of the trades tonight to see if Kela is alone in this situation. Obviously he's the biggest name so far as he went from being a closer to a setup guy, but by midnight tonight there could be more. We're on it.

This situation involved Keone Kela and Tommy Pham, both of whom were traded on Tuesday after their teams played on Monday. They both should have remained locked in everyone's lineups who had them starting on Monday before their first games. There weren't a lot of changes made in the NFBC, but all of them have been reversed and owners alerted. Look for any stat changes overnight.

Sorry for the confusion and we'll have to slightly alter the programming. Good luck all and thanks for your patience here.
