Anyone else not getting the screen to set lineups for July 15th? Not an urgent matter but mine disappeared as an option a couple hours ago.

Sorry about that. You will be able to set a lineup for Thursday's games and make changes if needed for the weekend games.

Thanks, for me pretty urgent as I really need to make 1-2 changes so glad to hear you are on it Greg

Just to be 100% sure, when is the pitcher deadline this week? Monday or before the games on Thursday?

When are we going to be able to change our lineups?

I just went to set my lineup and the pitching portion does not allow changes. The thing is I will be away from a PC until Wednesday starting in about 15 minutes. Not good. I'm wondering what to do when I return Wednesday afternoon BEFORE any games this week start. I really expected to be able to set pitching now and not have a problem later this week. I can see you answer Wednesday afternoon.

All lineups will be available to be set this morning and will remain open until five minutes before the first game on Thursday. All lineups will be locked five minutes before the first game on Thursday, just like we always do with the Friday games. So please note that. Pitchers will be open soon as well and you'll have plenty of time to get your lineups set before Thursday's first games.



So this week you will have a chance to set Thursday's lineup and then make changes for the Friday-Sunday games. Sorry for the mixup yesterday, but we'll have this fixed shortly.

This is now fixed and you can set your starting lineups for Thursday's games. Just remember that we will lock lineups five minutes before the first game on Thursday. You'll then have a Friday-Sunday link available after that one closes for any weekend changes you may have. Good luck all.

Awesome. Great turn-around and thorough explanation.

Same here. ::sigh::

so i wake up an hour early this morning to set my lineups for 14 teams (might not have a chance later) but the system is locked up and doesn't allow for thursday switches and doesn't allow for any fri-sun pitcher switches. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!

I cannot set pitchers for Thursday. I got in late last evening from my golf trip and just looked now. I read the post that lineups would lock at the first game today. What gives? I read the post by Greg that thing will NOT lock until the first game.

Still no thursday slots..

thursday is locked,,,,,,helpppppppppp!

Not only is Thursday locked, but I can't change my pitchers for Friday on either...

I read the post by Greg that thing will NOT lock until the first game. Yeah, I still cannot move my pitchers either. . . . this going to be fixed today?

Is this a bug or a feature? :-þ

I don't think you can change pitchers for Friday. You can't do that any other week unless they went on the DL mid-week. Hitters, yes. Pitchers, usually no....

Last time I checked the schedule, there wasn't a 6am EDT game.

thanks for the quick action greg..i just went to reset my lineups and was wondering if i missed something.

First games are set for 7 ET today, so rosters should lock today at 6:55 pm ET. I'm not sure why they locked at midnight, but I've asked someone from IT to jump in and fix this.



Now, you folks did have 3+ days to set your lineups.... But we'll get it fixed soon. Sorry for the confusion.
