The depth chart issue is really annoying. I can control the depth charts for my managed team so that is not the problem. THe problem is with other teams in my league that I do not control that have "screwed" up charts.

I've even taken control of a couple of teams myself to correct the charts but they always revert back to the incorrect lineup once the computer AI manages it! With depth charts screwed up it really affects the competitive balance of the game especially in managers mode.

In the meatime, my season is on hold and my fingers are crossed in hope that patch 6.02 is released soon!

Other than that, my thanks to Markus and Steve for their responsiveness and continued good work on the game! Best sports sim out there bar none!
I'm still playing my solo league. I never worry about how the AI is running the other teams I only worry about how I run mine. Any time you change something for an AI team it's not going to stick once you return control to the AI. And who's to say the AI teams would have a better record or be more competetive with the lineups you input for it. Maybe with the dips and sabremetrics
lineups the AI is generating the team is actually better.

Of course like anything this can be improved. But until indvidual manager and gm profiles are introduced into the game (v7 I hope)
this will probably be an area that can't make everyone happy.
Perhaps as some have suggested there could be an option to toggle between a more conventional "speed at the top" lineup or an "on base pct lead off hitter" lineup.

Either way it's not enough to stop me from playing my dynasty.
