    Franchise lineups

    Curious to see how you guys change your batting lineups. Do you use the manage lineup and change there whenever you want to make a change, or do you do it in the pregame (screen right before start of game) and leave the manage lineup screen for your solid(base) lineups? I generally do mine in the main lineup screen, but have been thinking, with morale and all, if I should leave that more as my set line up and make my series changes if any to the lineup in the pregame screen.
    Really wish sports games played to ratings!
    Only thing SIM about sports games now, are the team name and players

    MLB 23 FOREVER 20 is better, 23 just for Guardians
    Madden get rid of the extras (SS/XF, HFA, media, scenarios, game plan) or turn them down considerably.

    You know what I try to keep my lineup the same. Maybe give the guys off when the message prompts a tired, not slumping vs. lefties or righties. Consistency always works best for me.

    Check this out: I am using the Braves. I made the Matt Kemp deal. I still have IF/OF Kelly Johnson he is a beast for me. I called up SS Dansby Swanson moved him to 2B because I still have Simmons. He was struggling in about 100 AB's, so I was using Kelly periodically when guy's needed brake. He smashes right handed pitching & decent against lefties. I'm batting .325 6HR 15RBI in 100 AB coming up on Memorial Day in my franchise. I sent Dansby back to AAA & my new full 2B is Kelly Johnson.

      The morale system has messed up my lineup. I'm constantly trying to keep my guys fresh and I use the DH mostly to keep big bats in the lineup so I muddle around with lineups a lot anyways. Because of those two factors, I set my lineup based on morale then set my lineup for real before every game.

        i edit my lineup based on whose pitching for the other team and energy of players mostly, sometimes i change someone based on performance against lefty or righties.

          Before each series I go in and see whos pitching against us, ie: LRR, RRR, RLR, etc. Then I go set the line-ups accordingly and I always have a good idea who is resting or needs a DH rest. Very rarely if ever, do I change anything in the pregame lineup screen. Im really wondering though if I should make the main lineup screen my everyday starters and leave the lineups that way and only change if there is a injury or a benching or if I send someone down. And use the pregame lineup screen to make changes for that game. IE rest a palyer, move the lineup around, things like that.
