I am a 200 mil league with a hitter's park, and I am actually platooning Sexson and Texiera at 1b. I have Texiera listed as defensive replacement in Manger Strategy, and Sexson has "Remove for Defensive sub with lead" checked. So I get into late innings of the game, and Hal takes out Sexson but replaces him with Belliard, who was at 3rd, and brings Scutaro in to play third, rather than just use Texiera, who was available.

How did this happen?

Do you have Teixiera as your PH vs RHP? If you have him set for that HAL may hold him for a pinch hitting opportunity vs putting him in for D.

I would guess Hal can read but by asking this simple question, you may have brought on the wrath of Hal. I'd somehow make amends so that your team doesn't lose 10 of the next 12!!!!!
