Moving locked player to different position

Raiders · Post by **Raiders** » Mon Apr 12, 2010 10:24 am

I have aaron hill at 2B. He was just put on the DL so I want to get him out of the lineup. To do that I need to put scott sizemore at 2B who is my middle infielder. If I move sizemore to 2B, I can put in another middle infielder from my bench. The only player locked right now is sizemore. Shouldn't I be allowed to move Sizemore from one position to another even though he is locked. The system doesn't allow it.

Greg can give you the final answer but I think this will have to wait until Friday. Once the player locks you cannot move them.

E-mail me: [email protected], with the your name, league and who you want in the lineup.

Thanks.

Thanks. Geoff, Are we allowed to make lineup change AFTER a game is completed?

He's not asking to have a locked player taken out of his lineup, so there's no reason why we can't help him here.

He is asking for a benched player who already had a game started to be in his lineup. Not Fair. What if Sizemore had hit two home runs? This is not right.

This isn't like the rb/wr in football?

The one locked player stayed in his lineup -- he was just moved from MI to 2B, that's all. All of the other moves were made to players who have yet to play this week.

Geoff can you please move C Perez out of my lineup? my line up is locked, but I need to get him on my bench ASAP...thanks

Thanks Geoff....I did not know that.

I always try to manipulate players so that the problem doesn't arise.

I don't have to say it, because I already know that you are, but enjoy this great day of baseball. Twelve hours of nonstop action isn't nearly enough!

I think the only reason I came into work today was to watch some games without the kids interrupting me. Oh, that and the paycheck issue.
