MLB 25 Roster options.

Can we please pick where we want our 26th man next year?
By letting use pick where our 26th man goes, more rosters and lineups will look different next year with the old format of sets and seasons being gone.
For example, the 26th man is a bullpen piece rn which is why no one really cares. But if there’s a team boost that has better hitters to fill it then it would reasonably to let use pick an extra bench bat. Or in the upper ranks where it’s hard to throw anything and not get wacked around, and you use your pen a lot, a 6th starter (like mlb teams use) to fill the role would be useful. That way you can try a new starter and if he gets shelled you just use that 6th starter instead of having another bullpen game with no stamina.
Also if you think about it, if you’re just picking a 26 man roster Ohtani is your DH and starter. You’d then have room to use both the same bullpen guys and also use the 6th starter and not break the game. This way if SDS does OOP players again, it would make roster construction very fun.
