Thought I had a set roster, but I just realized I can't take Moe Berg after all. He didn't play in that game ... Sigh.

I hate it when that happens. Happened to me with Bobby Bonilla - had a perfect spot for him, and he wasn't in the lineup that game.

In the last iteration I had a player that was in the lineup for my box score, but when I searched for him, the partial season I needed wasn't with that team.

Looks like tdoak hasn't posted a message since late Monday. He also mentioned he was on vacation.

Not yet, unfortunately. I am having trouble finding a AAA setting that allows us to take the replacement players I have assigned - even the below-average guys are well about 200-500k players. Will send everyone a sitemail tonight regarding our options.

It's not a vacation exactly - I've been traveling for work.

polymerguy: actually, you are owner #24, and here are six pages for you:

1. Red Sox @ Orioles, 4/26/2007
2. * 3B Jesse Purnell 1904
3. Rustlers @ Reds, 6/2/1911 - yes, the Boston NL club was called the Rustlers that year!
4. OF Johnny Frederick 1929-34
5. Indians @ Rangers 4/28/1979
6. 2003 Cincinnati Reds statistics - all players eligible

Jesse Purnell hit a modest .105. Closest replacement I can find for him is 1961 Bob Sadowski.
