When in play mode in this lovely game, with the opposing forces being computer controlled, it seems like the AI very occaisionally makes inappropriate lineup changes for the opposition. It would be nice to have a third option under lineups. Human/Computer/Suggestion. This would pop up the lineup change the computer intends to make and would allow the gameplayer to override the suggestion if necessary. It could also allow the gameplayer to remove an opposing pitcher who is in the middle of giving up 30 runs when no relievers are available on that team and replace him with perhaps a starter who had some pitches left or a position player who has some pitching skills. If you initiated Suggestion mode on your own team it would allow you to get a feel for what your own "manager" has in mind but you could overrule him ala Steinbrenner.
