How Can I Make My Manager Platoon?

[RocheBag]

Never thought of that. I guess I kind of assumed that the scouting report was how the entire organization viewed a player.

It makes sense though that maybe the manager himself has very different opinion of a player than myself or my scout.

I would however like my manager to use stats moreso in setting his lineups than he currently does. Would that be effected by the ratings/stats split in AI settings? I currently have it set to 35/35/20/10

As reputation increases, it becomes more likely that a manager will insist on control of the lineup/depth chart. Someone posted in another thread about a manager giving him that control until the manager hit "Legendary" rep, at which point he no longer would.

If you're going out of your way to get managers with really good reps, that might be an explanation-- though many with high reps still will allow that control.

Here's an example: In my current solo game, my Short Season A team has an "unproven", "personable" manager. He will not, however, allow me to alter his batting order or depth charts.

The manager of my Major League team has a "great" reputation and "controlling" personality. I don't expect him to let me meddle, but he ought not to inspire the same imperiousness all down the line!
