I agree with an earlier comment. Spend ypur money preseason. If you want to make changes, try to make a trade first. When you drop 2 million in salario, it is the same as a permanent 2 million dollar injury.

After much scrutiny,... went with Rowdy Tellez, the most expensive 1B backup could exchange Keuchel for.

Came down to him and Jace Peterson. A private tryout was held and Tellez won the battle with better defense and ability to hit under pressure. Manager Dick Howser had bullhorns intermittently blasted from the left and right into the batter's ears, and although it was a close competition, Tellez displayed a bit more composure and smacked a couple balls into the fountains.

Tellez will be thrown straight into the fire tonight in front of a hungry home crowd vs. the formidable looking 11-7 Oberlin Tigers.

Thank you elpasospesos. So far team has lost .384 with 5 drop/adds. The money loss is adding up, so hopefully team starts winning and no more drop/adds are necessary.
1-3B Elly De La Cruz 2.48 lost .124
2-SP/RP Brad Keller 0.60 lost .030
3-SP Daniel Lynch 3.35 lost .168
4-OF Mark Mathias .50 lost .025
5-SP/RP Dallas Keuchel lost .037

Gave some thought to dropping an injured Judge for his whopping 10,500, but... would lose .525, so kept him. Plus he's been a one-man HR wrecking crew when not injured.

When setting up bullpen roles, does it make a difference what order the roles are listed in?

For example, I have it now as:
1-CLOSER-Alex Lange
2-SETUP-Jesse Chavez
3-MIDDLE MAN-Jesse Chavez
4-SETUP-Aroldis Chapman
5-MIDDLE MAN-Aroldis Chapman
6-TIED and 9th-Alex Lange

Would this order get more innings for Chapman?
1-SETUP-Jesse Chavez
2-SETUP-Aroldis Chapman
3-MIDDLE MAN-Jesse Chavez
4-MIDDLE MAN-Aroldis Chapman
5-CLOSER-Alex Lange
6-TIED and 9th-Alex Lange
