I handle all promotions/demotions, but I use the scouting reports to guide me. This doesn't always work out for the best, as I always fight myself over a tendency towards a short leash with newly promoted guys. And I noticed I sometimes let guys scuffle around too long in the minors. But I really enjoy the GM aspect of the game, so tend to handle all player movement. I actually let the Minor league managers set lineups to some degree, although with AAA, I'll move things around if I want to get some guy more ABs, or try someone at a new position. I also do quite a bit of fiddling with the AAA pitching rotation. I'm sure I piss my AI managers off to no end.
