If you play as a big budget team, you can really run the league pretty easily. In this years game, I've played as the SF Giants and have been allowed to have payrolls well over $250 million for a single season. You can do pretty much whatever you want with that kind of budget so it's not really a surprise that my team hasn't missed the playoffs in 10+ years or won less than 100 games in 6 years or so or won 3 straight titles. I would like the game to be harder, that's why in ootp 20, im going to be using a small budget team and hopefully with changes to the AI among other things the game will be really hard.
Although earlier in this release cycle, I played a small game with the Pirates and while we won the World Series, it was hard to keep a sustainable winner going, so there was no Pirates dynasty like I usually have when I play so that was realistic in a sense, but then last year as the A's my team was dominant for almost 50 years so idk maybe my strategy with the Pirates was just bad
