When I first played, I would fall into a habit of simming as much of a season as I could, as fast as I could. I would basically stop (by choice) for the June draft, the trade deadline, roster expansion, and the end of season/playoffs.
What I learned pretty quick is that rushing means you miss out on a great opportunity to really explore everything you can do in this game.
Once you have the initial set up of your game set to what you like (and you probably will not have it the way you want until you have done it a few times), I would recommend a methodical approach to the game.
Now, because I'm controlling a team that is in rebuild mode, I am basically simming only a game or two at a time, with my primary focus on scouting, player development, trading veterans for prospects, the draft, and my minor league system.
Best advice then? Do NOT get to emotionally attached to your first couple efforts at setting up your league, find the settings that work, and just pace yourself.
