How do YOU play your Franchise?

[nickaepi]

I want to get input on how you guys approach playing your Franchise and maybe you can help me (or others) out in the process . I have a goal to finish a complete season with my Braves and actually go thru to the offseason, etc.

My math may be slightly off but i believe I have about 90 games with just the NL EAST and the other 72 are other NL series and interleague play?

So i figure my NL east games are most important but i don't want to get bored playing the same 5 teams 18+ times.

I also want to play in as many different parks as possible to keep things fresh.

I'm thinking maybe play 25-50% of my division games? ( 23-45 games) and maybe 50% of all others? (35ish)

I'd be committing minimum 50-60 hours to actual gameplay, up to maybe 80. Im not sure if it's realistic for me, plus i want to play RTTS and a little DD somewhere.

That's my thought process on how to approach it but looking to see how others actually do it. I'm willing to try anything!

Edit: I know QC is an option but it just seems to play weird for me.i dunno..help!

I play every 5th game so I play through my entire rotation. It comes to roughly a game per week. Its enough to have an impact on the season, but also let my teams state show up in the standings.

I would highly recommend using the quick manage feature instead of just simming. I play every pitch of every game at the MLB level, but I use it for my minors. It helps keep you involved in every game and every decision. I sometimes take "scouting trips" where I just want to play a specific player. QM is great for that because you can hop into any situation where they are involved and hop right out once they're done, allowing you to get a good mix of a player lock system while still being in full control of the game. You can do it as much or as little as you want, I just highly recommend never full simming anything. Full simming keeps you distanced from your team, which breeds disinterest. QM keeps you involved in the team, and it only takes 5 minutes a game (at most, assuming you're never hopping in).

I'm about to complete my season for the first time, I've seemed to lose interest every year before this one. I started playing full games as the season started winding down but the first four months I was playing the first inning, simming 2-5 and then playing the rest. That allows me to move through a game fairly quickly, play a little with my starter and make all of the managerial moves unless my pitcher gets shelled during an inning I'm simming and the computer pulls him

Create myself as a CF for the yankees. Use quick manage until its my turn to hit. Manage every aspect of the organization except for scouting. 4 seasons deep so far

I'm in year 2023 with the White Sox and have played a lot of games. I have switched it up a few times but I think I found what I like the best.

I play two games in every divisional series.

Non-divisional, I play 1 game of every series unless it's a four game series then I'll play two games.

This season I also decided to play every game against my rival Cubs.

Playoffs I play every game

I've never used Quick Manage. I may check that out.

That's almost exactly how I was planning to approach it.
