Very Disappointed/In-game sub AI

To see that this type of thing is still occurring.

At the time of the injury the Cards had Robbie Cano sitting on the bench, so you'd hope the AI would have inserted Cano, put him at 2B and moved Wong to SS. Instead we get Yadier.

Sorry, but this is just unacceptable. I've no idea how hard something like this is to "code", but it should be a priority.

I love this game, have been playing and supporting it for years, and things like this don't keep me from doing so. But IMO, it really reflects poorly, and if I were a new, "serious" user, would be vastly skeptical regarding the game's AI.

FWIW, this is an import of a league started in '13, so if this is a result of that, my apologies, but it should still be fixed for imported games.

Also, in this same vein, the AI still fails to fill in a sub (when asked to fill out line-ups/depth charts) when it doesn't have a player rated at the position in question. The AI should be able to say, insert a player rated at only LF/RF as a CF sub too, rather than simply leave the spot blank, and then substitute Yadier (he's not much of a CF either), when needed.

Some way, somehow, this needs to be prioritized. Please.
