With tools I have for building schedules I can introduce variation like that. It is basically jumbling the numbers that go into the file to identify teams.
The trick is doing in a way to get the right variations - rotating through the other divisions across the years, but mixing up the other games too. Have the AL West play a different interleague division each year, but not always Texas @ Seattle for those teams first series every year.
I will put it on the list to revisit that. As bwburke94 pointed out there were issues with the "natural" rival matchups not persisting. Makes it tough trying to mix up the interleague but still keep that one particular matchup.
