Re worded
as important as this question is to me, I cannot believe that I misworded it.. Please offer your advice one more time.
Line Up Card
Num Name Pos
1 Angie 1
2 Barbie 2
3 Casey 8
4 Darla DP
5..9 ...
10 Julie (Flex) 3
At the start of the first inning, Darla (DP) goes in on defense and plays for Casey. Throughout the entire game, Casey actually stays on the bench for Defense but bats on Offense. I do this so that I have a fast running Flex tied to my DP. Had Darla not been a DP since she's not a pitcher or catcher, the only way I can put a fast runner in the game for her when she gets on base is to substitute. I don't have any other speed other than my Flex who I need on Defense only.
So when we come up on offense, DARLA hits a single and gets on base. I immediately bring my Flex in to run for her. Julie is still my Flex and has not left game. I do this throughout the game with DARLA and Julie. DARLA hits 3 times and gets on base, Julie runs 3 times for her.
Do you guys see anything wrong with playing in this manner? On a previous post someone made a great example of considering the "bench" as a defensive position when playing with a Flex.
