Rostered Player Not Playing

goldenvides · 12-10-2025, 12:31 AM

Just bought a variant version of Oscar Charleston last night and replaced it with my non-variant. Came back from work today and see he has not played one inning, though he starts in both lineups. Not sure what's going on or how to correct it. Any help would be appreciated

Could you provide some screenshots of your lineup/depth chart screen for vL and vR? Normally, I would think there'd be a cooldown first since you're replacing a non-variant of the player with its variant version.

that both the card you deactivated and the new card are still within the 14 game day window where neither can play. Go to the roster management icon and you should see a number in parentheses after their name. When that counts down to zero you'll be fine.

The best way to avoid that is to deactivate the old card, exit the game, log back in, and then buy the new card. See the discussion thread on Honus for more information, as many people had to play without him for 14 game days,
