a quick search through the mxs help yielded this:

myLayer = layermanager.getlayerfromname <string>
 myLayer.current = true

You have to first get the Layer by Name and then set it to current by its Layer Properties.

layer = LayerManager.getLayerFromName "0" -- get the 0(default) layer by name
layer.current = true -- set it as current
