Spring Training Issue - Utility Slots Not Registering

rylinus · 03-31-2017, 01:58 AM

I have played a few seasons now and in each one I have experienced the same issue. Only the players listed as Depth Starters start games. The players listed in the two utility roles never start. Would be great to get this fixed. Like most people I don't want to overuse players in the Spring by having them start every game and I can't do that now unless I sim one game at a time.

Thanks!

Don't start your starters. Works great. Every week or so flip flop some other guys by platoon advantage.

I am having the same issue as the OP, as well. Hope there is a fix for this soon.

As a workaround until this is fixed, I have been creating a couple of custom lineups and then alternating them in the 7-day line up and that seems to be working ok.

After the current update, this is still an issue for me.
