Does anyone have a problem with this explanation?
"
Future or projected substitutions are cases where a sub will replace a player who will still participate in some manner before the sub takes over. "
e.g.,
- the obvious re-rentry prediction
- #7 will replace #12 in the field, but #12 will bat this inning
- #30 will bat for #18 when we get up, but #18 will play the field this inning
- etc.
Any change that can occur right away is therefore not projected or future. That includes reporting subs for the next two batters at the same time, and DP/FLEX maneuvers; as long as the replaced player actually leaves the game.
