DP / Flex and CR

[CecilOne]

Thanks. Revised version:

The keys to DP/FLEX are:
A) no player can bat in different batting order slots during a game

B) making it known before the game with the lineup and
being sure all changes are reported to and tracked by the PU

C) knowing the provisions:
1) DP starts on offense, FLEX starts on defense
2) if not in starting “function”, not in game
3) the DP and FLEX players can't be in the batting order at the same time
4) the FLEX can only bat in the DP slot
5) the DP can play defense at the same time as the FLEX – any position
6) in #5, the player not playing defense still bats

C) DP/Flex switches change the number of players in the game; but do not change the batting order

D) DP/FLEX replacing each other are not “substitutions”, but when either leaves the game and returns, that is a reentry.
