The following is from the SOM Wiki page.....if the problem has been know for a while, can it be corrected soon?
Many times a manager want players in the starting lineup to move positions so the correct sub is entered. This happens when you have starting players that have the ability to play more than one position well and-or you have one backup that
can help at a few different positions.
-------------------------------------------------------
Sample depth chart
2B: Chase Utley (backup: Freddy Sanchez)
SS: Freddy Sanchez (backup: Bill Hall)
At the start of a game, if Utley were unavailable to play, the computer manager would try to insert his first backup, Sanchez, into the starting lineup at 2B. Since Sanchez is normally the starting SS, the computer would play his backup, Hall, at SS, so that Sanchez can slide over to play 2B.
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. In other words, using the above example, if Hall happened to also be in the starting lineup already (e.g. in CF), instead of moving Hall to SS, it would pull someone from the bench to replace Sanchez.
