First part is working correctly. With 2 out it doesn't matter if first is occupied or not. Less than 2 outs and bases loaded I definitely never seen that happen
Anyone else having issues selling a card and it tells you that you are either using said player card and need to remove him from your squad? Because he is not on my roster or squad and game wont let me sell him.
Check your events lineup or custom leagues. If they are in any lineup you can't sel,l also can't sell if you locked him in.
