Keep me informed on this one by PM or here, if you wouldn't mind. Thanks.
Edit: Oh, do you have the Minor League Management setting under Team Management set to you (Manager) then, as well?

First, to check that box (unless it's changed in the latest patch) you have to be in commish mode. I went in with my commish character and clicked the box, then went back to my GM character... when/if I get fired I'll have to be sure to go back and uncheck those boxes... or I could leave them and really screw the AI manager replacement! Fire me will ya...
I checked these for all of my affiliates (and only mine) and it leaves things alone as far as I can tell. Before clicking this I would tell it to play this LF in CF (teach him the position) and the computer would change him back to LF. After checking this, it doesn't.
It does create a little more managing, but that's what we want.
I ask the manager for depth charts, lineups, and staff... then edit what he's done to what I want... he doesn't change it back now. I don't bother with injuries, the AI just subs in the replacements until he comes back. So it isn't a great overload of micro-managing.
The only drawback I have found is the draft. When you draft, the players are supposed to be sent to your lowest level team... with this option clicked it sends them there (when you look at the player it says he's on that team) but it doesn't really (you can't see him on that team). I had to send all my draftees to DFA, then send them back to the team they were "on" already to get them to show up. I believe this has already been given a TT# though... I just went and clicked off this option for that team... the computer manager screws with the lineup and depth chart now, but I get my draftees without a bunch of work... and it's rookie ball anyhow.
