Managing Minor Leagues

PSUColonel · 12-03-2013, 06:28 PM

I have decided to manage my minor league farm system on a daily basis, but am finding it nearly impossible to keep up with all of the different lineups and depth charts. Is there an easy way to do this? (it's one reason I'd like the ability to save different lineups/depth charts) Does anyone who may also do this have an suggestions to keep things in check?

Use 7 day lineups.

I would suggest LOCKING all the players to their teams and using the "Ask AI to setup complete Minor League system" option from the roster page. There will be no promotions or demotions by the AI but it will keep the team setup and you can just handle the promotions and demotions without having to constantly set lineups and stuff. You will only need to make sure each team has the correct allotment of players for each positions to make a team. Then you can make minor lineup adjustments as need and use the aforementioned 7-day lineups to get guys spot starts and/or extra Playing time, but the basic lineups and depth charts will be done in a reasonable fashion and you only need to tweek them to your liking

You can lock everyone on a team from the Transactions page with the little bullet next to Pos at the top Left of the roster for each team, selecting them all and right clicking on one guy and disable AI promotion and demotion
