I'm still a little confused on how the game uses multiple players I've assigned to a position.

Let's say I have someone I want to play 2nd base every 3rd game. If I generate the lineup I'm assuming that the system will create it based on the primary player. But even though the primary player is the one showing in the lineup will the game put my 2nd choice in his place in the lineup every 3rd game without me having to intervene?
Yes, if you're simming out, then every 3rd game (or it really ends up being more like "if it has been 3 games since he has started at that position" or the starter is tired), it will sub in the depth player, and then it may shift the lineup around to fit them in - mostly since if, say, Ruth sits for someone, you might not want them hitting 3rd or 4th in the lineup.
