I'm in an online league that sims 7 days. Due to an injury I had to insert a reliever in the #5 spot of my 5 man rotation. I didn't want him to start 2 games during the sim and I didn't want to call up a guy from the minors because I was signing a major-league ready SP from hidden players, but luckily I had an off day during the upcoming sim.

So this is what I did:

change 'strict-order' to start "highest rested"

Put 1 pitcher on the DL and moved 1 reliever to start at #5

I also changed the order of my pitchers and re-set the number so that #5 would start on the 1st day. (I think originally #3 was supposed to start.) I was very careful to insure that all pitchers would be fully rested on their scheduled day. With the day off, that means that on the 7th day both #1 and #5 should be fully rested. Yet the game still started my #5 guy.
