i welcomed this change. This sounds like something that needs to be put into options.

As a dynasty player in god mode. The old way of not automatically changing the position based on role led to goofy league news/headline. (And in a dynasty setting, i pay attention to league news.) You get headlines like RP Wins Pitcher of the Month. Now, that captures my attention, for a RP to win Pitcher of the Month, he'd have to go an entire month without giving up a run. Instead, you have a starter who was originally a relief pitcher. The new story talks about how pitcher made no relief appearance and had no saves and pitched 50 innings with 3.05 ERA.
In online leagues i keep seven starters (6 in rotation and the 7th is my long reliever/emergency starter) in my lowest minor league levels. So it doesn't effect me there either.

Hopefully, either an option box in Game Settings or maybe a box can be added under Roster Strategy Settings. Something that says don't change a pitcher's position to match their role.
