Stupid ass CBS website fucked up my lineup by not saving the changes I made putting Abreu and NMart in todays lineup. Yahoo automatically saves your changes for you. FUCK!

Yes, Yahoo is so much easier to use. I just spent 30 minutes trying to find out how to simply drop a player. I didn't realize how spoiled I had become using Yahoo. I didn't realize another set up would not be as easy to use.

Anyone else getting destroyed by injuries? I'm having a hard time fielding a full lineup somedays
And that was BEFORE I knew George Springer was on the DL

Yep. From week one.

Is hambombs even participating anymore?

Romeo- please remove all of your major league players from your minor league slots and make the appropriate drops to get your roster size back to legal numbers. I might not have explained it well enough to begin with, but the minors slots are only for prospects who are actually in the minors. I don't care if you keep Lindor there since he's still a prospect who just got the call up. But you've been stashing guys like Ian Kennedy and Wade Miley there for weeks.
I only caught it just now because I was looking at your roster to see what guys I needed to watch out for this weekend in our matchup. As soon as you can, please make the appropriate drops.

Thanks.

On my screen it says you're currently illegal...

It hasn't showed anything on my lineup stating that at all this week? Shouldn't there be some sort of notification if you potentially had an illegal lineup? CBS is decent for football, but it sucks for baseball. I should contact these assholes and demand the $180 bucks back.

I just looked at your team page and it does say in a pretty big highlighted red section that your lineup was illegal for the first half of this week. You had too many pitchers active at once.

Im telling you it says absolutely nothing on my team page or the league page about it ever being illegal? Ive looked many times and made sure before I ever posed the question

I believe you. I'm just telling you what I see. I wish CBS wouldn't allow you to put players where they don't belong. Yahoo and ESPN give you an instant error message and don't even allow such a roster move to be made. CBS allows the move to be made and instead just sets it as an illegal lineup.

 

[WilltheThrill]

Since it was an honest error, I could go in and retro-actively remove a pitcher back on Monday to make your lineup legal so that you would have some stats, if the league and particularly your opponent are ok with me doing that. I don't know how else to help here though.

It is really freaking odd, I wish I could take screenshots and post them. I mean shit I have commissioner authorities, if I had wanted to I could have adjusted the shit myself (no way I would ever do that, I've got lots of integrity). It just seems strange that others can see it but I cant. Im not worried about the results, especially if I had too many players, just wondered why I couldn't see a message stating it.

7/6 & 7/7 it has a big red box with the text reading

"Roster Warnings
You have 22 active players. You must have 21.
You have 10 active Pitchers. You must have 9."

However, on 7/8 & today (7/9) the error is gone...

No I don't care about the results really, I just think the site is fucked up

I'm totally ok with that, bc the same thing has happened to me before, I just caught it before it hurt me
