Glitch?

In 2007 game, I have Aaron Miles as my starting 2b, and Jeremy Carroll as defensive sub in the managerial settings.

Game 5 - HAL removes Miles in the 7th inning and replaces him at 2B with Cesar Izturis, who doesn't even play 2b. Can anyone explain this?

Yah... even HAL isnt dumb enough to play Jamey Carroll. :P

Now that's funny. :D

Was Miles injured in the 7th? A weakness in Hal's logic is that he will replace with a better offensive player at the risk of poorer defense.

With an injury I don't think there's a check on defensive replacements listed in the manager strategy, just who's available on the bench.

Stoney's right. The subs have no bearing on the game being played, just when a new game starts.

I [i:d2eed70f66]am[/i:d2eed70f66] interested, however, in why a player who doesn't qualify at a certain position was subbed for someone who is. A link to that game would be nice.

Here's the link if I got it right:

Note that Izturis entered in the 7th at 2b as a "defensive sub" even though he doesn't play 2b?!??

Carroll is not hurt right?

Was it in the 2006 game that Brad Ausmus use to come in the play 2B on occasions?

Crazy... :?

[ed1447]

no - carroll not hurt. hasn't played at all. Even if Carroll were hurt, why bring in Izturis for Miles at 2b?

Plus - it's bad for chemistry in the clubhouse. Carroll is steaming....

You got me on this one. I haven't a clue why that happened. :?:
