Coming into the series Morneau was injured for 2 games.

1. I assigned my CF, Edmonds, as the backup 1b.
2. I assigned my LF, E. Chavez, as the backup CF.
3. I assigned reserve, O. Palmeiro, as the backup LF.

Results:

Edmonds CF
E. Chavez LF
J. Molina 1B

What happened is allowed under the [url=http://fantasygames.sportingnews.com/baseball/stratomatic/2007/about/popup_faq.html#lineups]documented behavior of the Lineup Depth Chart[/url].

"At present, although the system is able to perform multiple, separate shifts in the same lineup, it can only handle one level of a given shift."

... meaning that it had to go to the bench to find a replacement for Morneau at 1B because his sub, Edmonds, was already in the lineup at CF, and Edmonds' sub at CF, Chavez was already in the lineup at LF.
