Bug in 'Next Pitcher'

ricealum · 01-14-2013, 01:00 PM

I have a 5-Man rotation in "Highest Rested" mode. For the last game of the season, I brought up a kid from the minors and changed "Next" to read his name, thus saving my best pitcher for game one of the playoffs -- or so I thought. When I looked at the box score, the game had used my best pitcher anyway, screwing me in the playoffs!!! Arrrgh!!

I think you actually have to change the spot in the rotation. Or you could start the game in manual control, make your lineup change and then quick play.

FWIW I do not trust the computer manager to rest my pitchers no matter what I do. If I want to rest a pitcher, I demote him to the minors.
