Situation: DP is out of the game, and FLEX is playing both offense and defense. A sub is entered for DP/FLEX as the team is taking the field. FLEX player remains on the bench.

Question: Can the sub be designated as the DP playing defense for the FLEX, or does the starting DP have to reenter first?

I can't find anything in the book that would say the DP has to reenter first, but one of our esteemed web blues says she does.

Am I missing it?

And, if I am, what about if the sub enters while the team is on offense?
Dakota,

Sub goes to DP and replaces FLEX on defense.
Flex has now left the game.

What about if the sub enters while the team is on offense?
Sub goes to DP, but then plays defense for FLEX, Flex has left the game.

If, instead, you replaced FLEX (who was playing both ways) with the sub it is merely a straight substitution.

It is when FLEX batted for DP, that DP had left the game.
The original "DP player" may still reenter later.

Also you said the Dp was out, not the Flex player. You can put a sub in the for the Dp player. If you pulled the Flex player out of the game who was batting for the Dp you then can put a sub in for the DP.
