Speeding up lineup selection

Posted By DaveF

Does anyone else think it is too awkward and takes too long to set up your default lineups?

Every time you add a player you have to wait for the adjustment. Why not have boxes next to the players names, you just put an x in the box for your starters and then hit a SEND box. All your starting players get set up at once. Then if you want to adjust lineups, you can indicate actual positions and the position in the lineup using the current format.

Also, when setting up away lineups, why not set up the entire pitching rotation at once instead of having to do it game by game? Just have a box for vs lefty and one for vs righty and list games 1-5. Then have player numbers for the pitchers. You enter the starting pitchers number in the appropriate boxes.


These may not be great ideas, but I think they are improvements. Maybe someone else has some better suggestions.

It would seem to me a simpler, time-saving way to accomplish this could help keep managers. I find it takes me considerable time to set up away lineups, especially on nights when every screen change is S - L - O - W.

Any one agree or have a better idea?
