Though I'm one of the 'simmers' (mostly) that Styx describes above, I'd also like to see this fixed. It is certainly a bit annoying when it happens, and it seems things would work more smoothly if the boxscore were only updated once the user had left the lineup screen.

And I do think that 'people who play the game' are important to the game's designers, considering how much work has gone into the play-by-play (to take one example). Gameplay certainly isn't perfect (and nor is simming), which is something I can certainly accept from a game that offers as much variety and sophistication as OOTP. There were several suggestions about improving the play-by-play experience in the Suggestions forum, so perhaps there will be some additional improvements in next year's version. I'd hope that anyone with good suggestions for improvements will post there (and they're closing up the suggestions threads soon)- after all, we will all benefit next year from improvements arising from the suggestions made this year.
I was told by someone "in the know" that the lineup thing is by design...once you put them in the lineup, they are announced, which tells me they aren't planning on changing it. So, if you accidentally put someone in the wrong slot, they are announced. No take backs, no plans to make take backs possible.
