In my experience, the AI will put whatever pitcher it thinks is better into a "blank" slot in the rotation. Since you can't make a rotation of less than 3 guys, that third slot will be filled by pitcher #1, who of course also pitches in his own turn in the rotation.

Not sure about what happens when you take the guy out of the rotation entirely, but here's my guess: if you kept only player #2 (the worse of the two pitchers) in the rotation, he'd get his turn, but then for both of the other two turns in the rotation, the AI would put in player #1, who it thinks is the better pitcher. I hope this makes sense.....
