I would like to simulate a lot more than I do but I find that my pitchers with A stamina only last 3 innings unless I play them myself. I find myself playing quite a few games to ensure wins.

I have one save where I'm playing all games and I also do a quick sim to test players I created in success mode.

It's pretty fun inserting a couple of your players into KC/Tampa Bay/etc roster and watch them take over the division.

I went for the gusto and created an expansion team. I put 4 of my success characters in it though so it does well..... when *I* play them. Managed to win the world series last season by playing a bunch but this year I'm trying to only simulate.... my players are way better after all the training but they're well below .500 this time around. :( I've got guys with A contact rating batting .222 for some reason. The real problem though is pitching...

I simulate all of my games. I created an arrange team with my best success mode players and some pitchers in the game. They went 161-1 and 8 guys had BA over .400

You success mode players must be really good then.

Feel free to post them in the "Password Exchange" section.

You use Wii or PS2?

These days I play every 7th game during the regular season (which amounts to about 24 games if my math is right), and sim the rest. With my 6 man rotation, that means I'm rotating through controlling each one of them as I progress through the season.

With the playoffs I'll usually play the first game in a series and then sim the rest unless I need to step in to assure we win the series. With the WS I generally play all of the games just because it is the WS and it is fun :)

I typically take games that are started by a specific pitcher, and I will also play games against division rivals. I don't often play the others, unless simming puts my team at a disadvantage in the standings.
