I try to do that in the pitching staff screen for the specific team.. I set the team to a 5 man rotation. Add the fifth starter... but when a lineup change is done... the computer AI reverts back to a 4 man rotation. putting the 5th starter back in the bull pen.

How can I force the AI to keep those specific teams to have a 5 man rotation while the rest of the league default is 4?
This is an excellent question. And one reason i don't play as much.
As far as i can tell you still can't do it.
You can log in and ACT AS manager. But as soon as you leave AI takes over. The AI does the same moves (as far as i can tell) no matter how many times you play.
ie there is randomize teams AI.
You can LOCK player/team strategies.

I am pretty sure you can't lock in things like making xyz your top pinch hitter

You aslo can't control 2 or more teams at the same time
ie
i want to be Mgr of AL and one NL team.

Should i be shocked 2026 doesn't allow the ability to do what if scenarios?
