Upon being interviewed years after his retirement as a player, [Jim] Bottomley expressed his personal philosophy perfectly: “I don’t have a regret in the world. If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn’t change a thing. I’ve loved every minute of it.” Why was he nicknamed “Sunny Jim”? Bottomley’s own words said it all. - https://sabr.org/bioproj/person/Jim-Bottomley/

My creation… 30 random teams hosted inside the Holodeck. Each round will be played in steps with 2 teams per step. Winners move up a step, losers move down a step, while the unfortunate team that drops the tribble at Step 1 is ejected from the simulation, unceremoniously dumped from the arch, and left to the cold void of the ship’s memory purge before the dropped franchise rights are auctioned off to the highest-bidding Ferengi trader and a brand-new random team is materialized in their place.

I am manually replaying the 1952 season without any problems like you describe.
For instance, I am currently setting up starting lineups for my next game. Larry Jansen is correctly shown as the starting pitcher for the Giants’ June 19th game vs Pittsburgh.
But if I wanted to choose another starting pitcher instead… I would simply go click on his name (ie. Al Corwin), drag it across and drop it in place over Jansen’s name in the #9 spot, then click the blue "NEXT’ tab on the top right.
And Corwin would then be the Giants’ starting pitcher instead of Jansen…

WEEK 8

(9 of 10)

SOUTHAMPTON 1 - NIL NEW CASTLE
Southampton (3-3-1) vs New Castle U (3-2-2)

SOUTHAMPTON (TR2; DEF 3) vs NEW CASTLE (TR 2; DEF 2)

Sometimes it is better to be very lucky than good. Case in point - Southampton’s 1- Nil victory over NewCastle United at St. Mary’s Stadium with 32,505 delirious Southampton fans left happily stunned. With the tick on the clock a lonh header by Southampton was redirected in the wrong direction by Newcastle Midfielder, Jonjo Shelvey. The ball whizzed by stunned Newcastle Goalkeeper ,KArl Darlow as time expired. It was an “Own Goal” for Shelvey.

Southampton now sits with Burnley tied for third, both with 15 points.
