I am about to start Round 1 of the 2009 MLB Playoffs with the Boston Red Sox. How do playoff rosters work?

Do I have to set my roster at the start of each series, like in real life? Or can I move players to the squad, game by game, like during the regular season?

Also, I want to leave a couple of veteran players off the playoff squad, and keep a couple of youngsters. The only option I see for reducing my roster down to 25 from the inflated September callups roster is to demote players to the minor leagues, and when I try that with these veterans they either refuse to report, or they have to clear waivers.

So is there some other way to set playoff rosters other than demoting them (or DFAing / putting them on waivers)?
