Hi all, just looking for some clarifications.

What I assumed was a 4 1/2 man rotation was that the ace would take over if able to do so, instead of the fifth guy being played. However, I think I read somewhere that the fifth starter and spot starter would alternate the fifth start. Which is it please?

Also, when a 4-man rotation is set, an "unassigned" spot for fifth starter shows up. Should I be concerned with this and can it be used in some way? Thanks.

4 1/2 man rotation means the first four starters go every round and the fifth starter goes every other iteration through the rotation. So it's like: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1 etc.
