PITCHER IN THE LINEUP - as if no DH
-
If I sub a player, or change players position once the game has started, my pitcher ends up in the batting lineup. Thank you.

If you mean when you sub out the DH for a different hitter or for a speed guy?
Thats the way it's supposed to be.

If you swap your DH with a position player you forfeit the DH spot yes.

I've pinch run for my DH many times offline and kept the DH....

Yes you can pinch hit or pinch run for the dh and keep the new guy as dh. I think what you cannot do is switch the dh player to the field without losing the DH.

This - if the DH takes the field, you lose the DH and the P has to bat.

If a player serving as the DH is later used on defense, he continues to bat in his same lineup spot. But for the rest of the game, his team cannot use a DH to bat in place of the pitcher. A team is also barred from using a DH for the rest of the game if the pitcher moves from the mound to another defensive position, a player pinch-hits for any other player and then becomes the pitcher, or the current pitcher pinch-hits or pinch-runs for the DH.
