again this is not a bug, 40 man rosters are in spring and before you end spring you must cut down to 25 men

It has not been fixed because it is not a bug. The game's roster logic takes into account stats rather than player's name and fills out the lineup accordingly. 30 team control and turning injuries to OFF in ST are ways around this if you want lineups to stick. You can always go through and change them to your liking yourself.

EDIT: And the paring down of the 40-man to the 25-man roster like Owl said.

i can do this with just controlling my own team right?

Jimmy Rollins batted 5th the other night, I've gotten to the point where I wonder if we obsess too much over lineups. I just decided to put everything back on auto and if I see something really crazy I'll step in but otherwise I'm just going to worry about my own team.

If you have 30 team control with lineups set the Manual and the CPU is STILL reordering all the lineups, then I think it should be considered a bug and wish it had been addressed.

I know people are perfectly content with the CPU batting Jayson Werth 8th and putting Derek Jeter in CF, etc. etc. etc. But that's the way the CPU's logic is programmed and who am I to question it. But if I set lineups to Manual, isn't it reasonable to expect the lineups to remain unchanged? (I know about the whole 40-man to 25-man roster issue, but does that justify overriding your settings?)

I compare it to trades. Sure, the CPU can trade Pujols for some AA nobody, and that's not a bug because of the CPU's logic. But if I set trades to Manual and Pujols is STILL traded for some AA nobody, then that would be a bug, no?

Two things. You can control all lineups in this game, BUT, it will sub out players (regardless of how you set the lineups) who are tired and you might not be totally happy with how it does it, but that might be what you are seeing. Personally I'm happy that I can control all the lineups AND see the AI still sub out players when I play other teams.
