Manager Game Strategy

[pfholden]

I'm hiring a new manager in my sim and, in doing so, realized I've never hired a manger whose lineup and pitching staff strategy is "retains some control" (with the yellow button). I've only ever hired managers who retains or allows full control.
What exactly can a human GM still control with lineups/pitching staffs when they have a CPU manager who "retains some control" over that strategy?

Here is my Strategy screen. Look at the middle of the screenshot. It explains what the three colors mean. Now, look at the right-side of the screen. There are only 5 components of our Team Strategy that I am allowed to adjust and they have yellow circles next to them. Yellow means I can adjust them a bit, I can't move the slider all the way from side to side. If there was a green circle next to one of the strategy components I would be allowed to adjust it as much as I want.

Yeah thanks, I'm up to speed on all of that.



My question is specifically with setting lineups/pitching staff when they color is yellow for "retaining some control" for that category before hiring a guy. I went ahead and hired the guy and I, as GM, am able to fully control the lineups and staff, just as I am when a manger allows me to retain full control over lineup/staff (the green light)
