I just have a quick question about this. I changed the LA Angels name to the Anaheim Angels (left everything else the same) and as a result of that for the coming season it has swapped the Astros and Angels schedule (IE Anaheim play Arizona in their rivalry series, and Houston is now against the Dodgers).

I'm guessing this is due to Anaheim going from 2nd in the AL West to 1st alphabetically which means they effectively have Houston's team number in the schedule list and Houston has the Angels slot (if they were called Los Angeles still).

Is there a way to stop the schedule file from flipping their team numbers because of the name change? Or is this a case where I have to manually swap all their games in the file and upload a new schedule file?
