I get that why they don't want to, I'm not arguing otherwise.
I'm saying your solution is worse. Yeah you see all 5 starters, but the downsides are worse then what we have now.(I'm trying to see if I can clear this hellscape that is our quotechain)
You see it as a negative, I see it as an improvement, and more realistic. In baseball, pitchers have faced pitchers that didn't hold the same spot in their rotation. it happens all the time -

In baseball, pitchers have faced pitchers that didn't hold the same spot in their rotation. it happens all the timeIt's not more realistic because teams have control over when and who they start. You see it all the time when nearing the playoffs, they manipulate their rotation to get who they want starting.
Your solution is adding more RNG and would add more frustration to the player base. I can already see the conspiracy theories being posted. "Whenever I'm about to move up a division I always get my 5th and my opponent gets his ace"! It doesn't matter if that's true or not, people will post it and it will cause a headache for SDS.

I would also like the ability to have two possible starting lineups, one if you are facing a lefty and one if you’re facing a righty.

Nah I like that we actually have to build balanced lineups now

I get that people could/would abuse this, but it sucks if you have a clear platoon and have to burn a player if you face a certain handed pitcher. Not as much of an issue currently since there are so many great cards, but earlier in the year I would have really enjoyed being able to platoon. Maybe implement a system where you can select only one platoon option per lineup, so you’d have to select the position and the two players pre-game so I’d get Frank vs lefties and Giambi vs righties and the rest of the lineup would be the same.

I think if we selected SP even with a stamina system it would make it so I would face the same guys over and over. It might effective make SPs openers
I am indifferent towards having a lefty or righty lineup

its not gonna happen but keep dreaming

I don’t get why a simple rotation of your starting five is not the system. Why not just make it like franchise works?
-
They need to fix this. It’s too hard to justify dumping a ton of stubs into starters when you have no clue who’s gonna get picked. I’d buy sale but why would I? He’ll get picked once out of 10 games if I’m lucky.
I end up running with 5 decent pitchers that I can get for a decent price and not feel bad about the situation.
If the bullpen has stamina then the starters should be the same, how hard can this actually be to implement?
-
In ranked season the pitching randomizer did not work. Always wants to keep choosing same pitcher in rotation. Everytime I finish a game I have to temporarily remove him from my lineup. If the same pitcher keeps getting picked he will look very tired and all his pitches look slow. Pitching randomizer was horrible.
