Can't put starters in a utility spot

rstoomeyii · 08-24-2016, 09:18 PM

Since when can't you put a starter in a utility/bench spot? I have a catcher that is getting old and I want him to DH, but I still want him to back up my current catcher and play every 6 days or so. I used to do stuff like this all the time. Another example is my RF will be my second best CF, so I would have them as the back up for CF if they're tired and the backup RF slides in my starters place. Now I can't put any starter in a utility spot, what gives?

Uncheck the auto sync, and you can.

I was having this problem after the latest patch. someone in the fix thread suggested unchecking 'Auto Sync Lineups & Depth Charts' in the right hand corner.

working like before now. hope this helps.
