*sigh* I don't understand half of what John says most of the time. If I did, my record would be better. So I had to do it.

There's also a work around based on individual settings for getting your pitcher to hit as the DH in DH leagues... in the $140m league I likely would have went that route instead of not drafting a DH at all if the tiers didn't preventing me from getting the good pitching/good hitting pitchers I like using...

(and yes, admin is aware of this, I sent in a ticket about it months ago and had a small discussion/dialogue with them on it)

Can you post a link to the game in question - gorbyruss? Also is this in the $140 League or another league.

...nope...don't paritcularly care to know as long as it gets fixed...i assume there was some "magic" combination of settings that would cause it to slip through...

Perfect timing, since I start a 3-game series with him tomorrow morning. In Mile High Stadium. I was starting to sweat bullets.

This was me - I had no idea about 'magic' settings. I had intended for Hale to do 1-2 starts, but just never had a chance to get back to the computer this weekend. He only threw 2/3 inning in today's PM game and is back at mop-up.

I apologize to all involved.

...site staff was surprised as well as to whatever allowed it to work...if it worked like they thought it did, it wouldn't have been an issue...

I'm over .500 after that dismal start...
