It seems to only happen if you play GM only. If you play GM and manager it doesn't do this. If you play GM and Manager you can give your bench coach the duties you would your manager and it really makes no difference on game play. I noticed it started the auto put and take guys off the IL when I switched to GM and manager. Not sure if this is a bug or a feature.

If you configure your continue to not autohandle anything, it should stop anytime someone gets off the IL. At least it has for me. This is my continue configuration.


If I play GM only I just move these guys off the DFA but the weird thing is you can't send them where they came from. The DFA list still has them at whatever level they were for some reason. So I can't send a guy put on DFA from AA back, I have to move him to AAA or A then readjust.

My main strategy for this is don't keep the rosters full. If you use 28 AAA,AA 30 A, A- 35 DSL no limit rookie like it is in the MLB now you don't have to replace every injury. So opening day it is a full roster. I set my manager options to stop if an injury longer than 1 week happens and include minor leagues. If I have 25 or 26 players and have at least one backup at C, one OF back, and one IF backup I just leave it alone. Rosters used to be 25 man, you can get by with a couple of players less.

If you have 26 on the roster and 28 spots then the AI will just activate the player with no DFA. So the hands off let them the teams go a little short but not beyond minimum backup and not lower than say 25, avoids a lot of this but not all. It mostly starts hitting in August or September or when I have had to back fill to 25 or 26 and guys start coming off the IL.
