Four to Six Man Rotations

[ncbravesfan]

With the Angels announcing that they are going to a six-man rotation, it would be nice if you could have the option to go with 4, 5 or 6 man rotations - to keep it more realistic.

This is one of the features they need to add to Franchise mode, especially 4-man playoff rotations.

I don't really understand how they haven't had this feature. It was in baseball games in the 90s.

This last playoff I set all the teams to a 4 man rotation. Didn't have a problem getting through the 7 game series.

You can roll with 4 without any problem. But it would be nice to have the option for 6.

Yeah the 4 man rotation is easy, you just leave the 5th spot empty and it will automatically treat it like a 4 man rotation.

You used to be able to manually do a 6 man rotation, but now with morale being a thing it's a lot harder.

Is there a way to change that setting for RTTS? So frustrating to be a 99 pitcher with awesome stamina and not get the chance to carry your team through short series. I've gotten to the point where I refuse to lose a series before the deciding game with the fifth starter on the mound. I just re-sim when that happens.

It really shouldn't need a manual override, the game should know how to manage a postseason rotation.

Speaking of postseason situations....

Why can't we get a starter up in the bullpen to warm up and put them in the game? Bumgarner in game 7 a few years ago and Verlander, Kershaw, etc last year prove this is a common occurrence we should be able to implement as well.
