Guys,
I'm not arguing that because the FLEX batted between the 9th and 1st batters, she therefore illegally subbed for B1. I even mentioned the rule about illegal subs taking precedence over BOO. My question is, how do you handle the scenario that I presented where you techinically have 6 illegal subs, not just 1? Do you disqualify them all and if the team does not have enough players do you then declare a forfeit?

They cannot be illegal subs if they are already in the game.

But that is the point that I'm trying to make here; an illegal sub is still a sub which mens that B1 is no longer in the game when the FLEX comes up to bat in her position. Therefore when B1 comes up to bat after the FLEX, she is illegalllu returning to the lineup in B2's position thereby mking B1 an illegal sub too and so on right down the line as each batter comes up in turn. So in my scenario, with the FLEX, B1, and B2 on base, B3 and B4 in rhe dugout on strike outs, and B5 at the plate, it's pretty obvious that you now have 6 illegal players in the game, and by rule they all should be disqualified.
I guess the real point that I am trying to make here is that all of you folks doing HS ball in states new to the DP/FLEX rule have to be diligent in yout lineup management so as to not allow this to happen.
