Incomplete lineup alert

MikeMcGuire · 01-19-2017, 01:54 PM

OK, this has to be the easiest thing in the world to do, but I'm stumped. Sometimes, I will have the AI manage until a certain inning. If the AI changes the pitcher, the pitcher spot is empty in the lineup even though the reliever is actually in the game. Here's the problem: I can't drag the pitcher from the roster on top into the lineup, assuming I want him to bat (he's in red because he's already in the game). Nor can I drag his name from the mound into the lineup. What's the trick to get him to bat?

This is an interesting question. Let's see if I understand it and answer it correctly with another question.

You say that the AI has already made the substitution before you intervene. In that case, it probably has done (or will do, when the inning is over) the traditional insertion of the RP into the ninth slot (or wherever the previous pitcher was batting). That's what I am showing in the screen print when I made this switch myself.

Are you intervening just after the AI made the substitution but before it has entered the pitcher in the ninth slot?

I'm not even allowed to intervene because of the "roster spot missing" pop-up window.
