If you are going to manage your games in detail like this (this is how I play and have done things like this before), then you need to make sure you don't screw up. Remember a few years ago when Joe Maddon messed his lineup card up and Andy Sonnanstine had to pitch? I see this as the same type of thing, and more or less you need to be a better manager to make sure that is doesn't happen.

However, I would love a "confirm substitution" button, that may or may not be optional. I have had a few times where I am dragging a player into the bullpen and accidentally drop him into the game. Having a confirm substitution button allows this problem to go away all while not being an "oh no I messed up and didn't realize it" button.
I agree with this, and the 'consistent button' issue. Any other problem I could put down to the batter missing a sign, or whatever, but I HATE it when a hitter gets dragged to a spot I didn't want him in. And there's absolutely no way to prevent, regardless of the level of care you exercise.

"Confirm substitution", please.
