Depending how you set up your league, you'll need to have commissioner controls. This is often achieved by creating two human managers, one for your commissioner role, and one for the owner/manager role. By default, expansion will automatically happen I believe. But as commissioner, you can force it to happen in the off-season after the World Series.

Moving teams or changing them, is as simple as editing them as the commissioner. But I believe they'll spontaneously move as well by default.

The initial scouting reports are fairly accurate, but re-scouting specific players will alert you to any changes that may have occurred.

Thanks for the help!
Yes. Being a minor league manager means you're at the mercy of the Ai to make sure you have a roster.
