For CA grind, you can fully load the BB with your best radars. She will have very high accuracy and be able to hit with some frequency, even with red morale, while only performing single attacks, which will be no threat for your flagship grabbing MVP.

If the BB is in day cut-in setup, she may steal MVP if her firepower is higher than the flagship and the flagship doesn't trigger double attack.

On my 3-2-A CA grinds, I only rotate the SS when it's taiha'd. 3 CA(V), BB, CVL, SS, in this order.

Flagship CA with the strongest double attack setup; escort CAs with 14cm/15.2cm twin/15.5cm triple main + 15.5cm triple sec + recon seaplane + surface radar; BB with 4x highest accuracy radars; CVL with weak dive bombers on the 2 biggest slots + Saiun + T2 Recon (or 2x Saiun); SS  ... well, I use non-remodelled Maruyus, they have no slots, but would use engines/turbines on it. Always Double Line.

Once the escorts go red morale, things may get tricky due to missfest abuse, to the point of one or two enemy ships surviving till the closing torpedo and hitting someone, and even forcing night battle to try and score the S-rank. Sometimes shit happens.

I've been experimenting with using Chitose-class AV instead of CVL. With best seaplane bombers on the 2 biggest slots and a Hyoteki or fully loaded with seaplane bombers, she packs quite a punch while presenting little threat to the flagship MVP. The AV may kill several enemies in the fight, but the MVP is decided by most damage dealt, overkill included, not most kills scored. The AV may kill 3 enemies alone for a total of 220 damage, but if the flagship scores a double attack on a single enemy for 120+110 damage, the flagship takes the MVP. The lack of Saiun can trigger Red T, though.
