jakelv,
In the event of a starting pitcher being scratched from a game and being replaced by another pitcher, this game will still be counted against your record in the Survivor contest.

Is this listed in the official rules? It seems a little unfair.
I got burned by this today in the Detroit v Milwaukee game where Capuano was replaced by Villenauva.

bb,
As it states in the above rules section:
If a game that you have made a selection on is postponed, suspended, cancelled or removed from the board for any reason, your selection will not be counted
Pitching changes are not mentioned in a reason for a game to be removed from the board; Therefore, the selection will stay.

well it seems a little ambiguous to me. it's almost like placing a bet, and most bookies I use will have this explicitly stated in their rules.
Imagine if someone has pick no 21 on St Louis and they replace Carpenter with Kip Wells.

In other words. If you pick Sorry @ss Clemens and he pulls his hamstring walking to Dunkin Donuts, your Yankees pick will remain in tact even if Chang Wang Wong makes the start. Whatever the outcome of the game is counts against/for your Survivor streak. This is not a 'no action/push' selection.
