You mean it's changing the actual lineup you put together when you generate depth charts from lineup? So you say put guy 1 hitting 3rd, and it changes it to guy 1 hitting 6th? Or is it changing the positions in the depth charts? So you say have guy 1 play SS, but it generates the depth chart with guy 1 at 2B?
Changing positions has been brought up before, by me in fact. I heard nothing about it past my post... it shouldn't be changing anything about your lineup, hitting order or position, but want to make sure which one is happening to you.

It creates the lineups based on ideal conditions, as in those guys are not injured. When it comes to the games it subs in the next guy in the depth chart... or subs in someone.
Personally I like this... I always got annoyed when the computer left them out in V5 because I would have to remember to go back in and get them in the lineup later. So if I went in to set the lineups, but my biggest prospect is out for a week... I'd have to remember to go back in in one week and change the lineups again. I want minimal work needed for my minor leagues, that kind of micromanaging is annoying.
As long as it works right, does sub someone in, I like it.

Don' those increases take effect or is there some sort of checks and balance?

How old was he? Did his ratings drop during the season?
Also, just because it says he could or should doesn't mean he will. I think those lines are depicting a
perfect season for him
might result in these numbers... there's never a perfect season.
Maybe he drew the short straw and faced far more great pitchers than might normally happen for average. Maybe the AI was so scared of him they pitched around him, and he hit pitcher's pitches. Also, maybe it's just bad luck, see what he does next year.
