Losing a player on defensive substitution
I feel like I've posted about this issue (or something similar) before, but I consider this a pretty major bug. I was acting as the manager for a team and in the process of making several defensive substitutions between innings of a spring training game. I removed the defensive positions from all the players I was replacing, and I dragged a player into a lineup position. I had not yet selected a position for that player (i.e., his position was still "-" on the screen) when I decided I wanted to insert someone different. After doing so, I saw that the player I'd decided against inserting was no longer available in the game. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN. I checked the box score, and the player is listed there with no position. I'm hoping that at the very least a flag can be set so that a player is not officially in the game until he takes the field at a position, but honestly lineup changes should not be permanent until the player exits the substitution screen.
