3. If this series is already full but the teams play another series later in the season, schedule a double-header then.

4. If no double-header is possible, but the teams have a common day off, schedule a game there (possibly add an exception for, say, the all-star game).

5. If none of the above is possible, the game magically continues just like it does now.
You are drastically overestimating the ability of the scheduling function of the game. This might be possible, yes, but not with OOTP as it currently stands. as elfsutton said above, we need a more powerful scheduling tool first.
