playoff roster
-
Even though all Gameplay Mode settings are "Manual", the CPU keeps setting my active 26-man roster for the playoffs as I Advance Day from the last day of the regular season.
Does anyone have any suggestions or workarounds?

Seems the CPU grabs all of the highest rated playoff eligible players from your 40man. Consequently, it remakes key pieces of your minor league lineup/rotation/bullpen, which is problematic if your AA or AAA teams are still in the playoffs. Importantly, it does not appear to burn incremental Player Options for players that get sent down for playoffs but were not moved thus far in the season.
In terms of workaround, within Roster, you can add or remove players from the Playoff Roster the CPU sets, just like you would to send down/call up players. However, if the CPU has backfilled one of your AA players to AAA, you cannot revert that player back to AA. Once advanced into the Playoff home screen menu, there is no more moving players amongst minor league levels . That is a pain.

In Franchise when moving from Spring Training to the regular season or from regular season to the playoffs, I've never understood why it doesn't have a pop up asking you to select your 26 man roster. This seems like it would be an easy fix to this problem. When everything is set to manual I expect to have total control over every roster move.

Yes agreed.
