Okay im literally almost to the point of deleting the game over this cause its driving me insane. I have a franchise where I control all 30 teams. Replaced every team with a new team (too long to explain why). I have everything set to Manual control so the CPU wont interfer. But when I play games, there are 2 teams that continually will replace players right before the first pitch! And its not even replacing them with better players. Im talking literally taking out a star 99 overall third baseman and putting in an overall 68 center fielder whose 2nd position is only LF/RF. Its doing this with 3 star players on 2 seperate teams and I honestly dont know why and it is making me so mad! I even turned Fix Lineups to auto and simulated a few games to see if they'd take them out of the lineup, and it didnt. Kept them in the lineup and just replaces them either before the first pitch (if home) or at the beginning of the bottom of the 1st (if away). My favorite team made a bunch of dumb trades irl and got rid of everyone so my desire to play The Show hasnt been there except for this franchise mode, now after this I may just never play again cause its so annoying of an issue and makes no sense that the CPU would take out a 99 OVR player.

sounds like you have players playing out of position

The players are playing their positions. I checked that and they are playing their correct positions, and are the best player at that position for that spot.

did latest patch address this issue?

Im still on 20 so I dont get updates. Dont buy the new game every year. Tried sending him down to Class A, and brought another 3B up, and it worked fine. Turned the guy I brought up into that guy and it started taking him out again. Game just doesnt want a good player there for some reason.

Adding to the CPU problems, I have a franchise where I have control of all 30 teams, replaced them all with customs, and wiped all star players out replacing them with different ones (long story). On the team that was the TB Rays, I have a third basemen who is 99 Overall. Went to play against them as the team that was the Cubs, and right before first pitch, the CPU replaced that 99 OVR. third baseman with a 68 OVR centerfielder. Cause yah know, THAT makes total sense right? Take the teams best player out and replace him with an AA talent player who isnt even an infielder? Makes no sense.
