If it's clear that the coaches are doing it to monkey with each other, then yes, dump them! They are acting in an unsportsmanlike manner, and an ejection is warranted. If caught before the game, do not accept the line-ups. Nominate new coaches/managers, and make them redo the line-ups. If caught after the game's start, simply correct the line-ups at no other penalty (after dumping the coaches, of course!).

Of course, if it's just a rec league and the coaches are doing it just for a chuckle (like Barney Rubble is batting clean-up), then go along with it... and then get new line-ups.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
