How many games do you sim at once and how often do you check the stats of your team? Still trying to figure out the game lol. Thanks.

Do you GM , manager or both? And do you use the 7 day lineup and team strategy?

i sim one day at a time. keeping track of my wins/losses. i usually don't look at other things during that time. After a week, i'll check over my major leagues, glance at my minors. Obviously injuries, trade offers and things as that pop up and i address those immediately. After a few weeks of this (no more than a month, or any time i make major changes/trades), i'll make a back-up of my game. Then i'll give the team a good look, see if i have some players stinking it up and decide if i should trade them, demote them, or just cut my losses and set them on their way.

i used to gm/manage, but now i just GM, controlling trades, hirings,promotions to majors. let my managers do line-ups and my asst. GM minor league promotion/demotions.

I sim one game at a time. I always check the transactions log and the waiver wire daily. I never use 7 day lineups. I always use team strategy.

How do you guys set up the team strategy. I am a tad confused on what strategy to use and when. Although I do know baseball but not to the level to know what strategy to use prior to game but during the game is No problem! Thanks again for all relies.

If I am gm/manager, then I select "balanced" from the dropdown menu or perhaps a strategy that matches my team. If I am gm only, then I let the manager set the strategy.

I sim mostly one game at a time sometimes more if on a winning streak. I use the 7-day lineup to properly use position players and SP. I make use of the bench player feature to stop over use of certain relief pitchers and force more usage of others. I check other teams and players for possible acquisition and make early decisions on pending FA both on and off my team. Always looking for players who outperform their apparent rating. I use 2-8 scale and 20-80 overalls to fog things without going stats only.

I'm almost 100 years in one Fict MLB and 75 years into another. If I get stale with one I switch to the other which takes me sometime to get up to speed on.
