- #30 will bat for #18 when we get up, but #18 will play the field this inning

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.
Would be interested to see the method used to keep track of that, (it's not going to happen now, but later) on a line up card.
