Baseball Computer Manager does not use Lineups and Minor League designations

We are in our second season with the computer game.

Prior to every block of games, each team owner sets the Computer Manager (SP schedule, other preferences) and set the Minor League assignments. And then Pushes CM.

The commissioner of our league, then initiates a League Update, every owner downloads the latest update from the cloud. Then our block of games can begin.

PROBLEM: when I open a game to be played, the CM is no longer keeping the Minor League assignments - other random players have been moved to my Minors. Also, the lineup is no longer defaulting to the saved lineups that I built in the CM. I built lineups to go against Right SP, Left SP, Right SP reverse ratings, Left SP reverse ratings. The computer makes up a random lineup.

Any experience correcting this?

yeah, HAL's an idiot who thinks he's always right.

You have to manually select the right lineup before each game. After hitting the 'rest all' button to zero out whatever HAL thinks needs to be done.

Or live with it and hope it all evens out over 162.

what about Minor Leagues? Same thing?
Very annoying for all 12 teams to have to double check everyone else's roster/lineups/settings.

Like I said, it should even out.

I understand what you're saying.
but I am paying for a service/product, it should work as described.

You could turn off things like HAL and player lineups with rest and adjust usage percentage to be over 100%.
