I'm looking to add bench players geared for defense for later inning play. I've ticked the "replace for defense" box but don't see my def guys coming in. 1) How can I get these defensive replacements into the game when I have a lead? 2) Is there a runs lead requirement for this to occur? How big? 3) Does this only occur via the Pinch Hit mechanism? 4) Has anyone successfully implemented this type of late inning defensive upgrade with players of lower offensive skills?
