Exhibition Playing Time
 

How does everyone handle playing time? I tend to follow the recommendation of 50% for every start except for game 4 where I reduce my "stars" to about 30%. This seems to prevent rust for my first team.

I'd like some feedback on this as well. I'm not quite sure what to do in exhibition. I'm currently putting most of my stars as inactive to prevent injury for the first few games then will slowly work them in later in exhibition. I just hate to spend a month of offseason in MP and then lose 1-2 stars in exhibition.

I do what's recommended.

I put my starters either inactive or 2nd team for the first game; activate my starters for the second game but keep them 2nd team; and then start all of my starters for the third and fourth games keeping the 50% or less playing time.

i never play my top starters in the first 2 games. If i have a starter tho who has a large gap between Current and Future potential i will play that starter in all 4 games as recommended. In the last 2 games i will play by recommendation for all starters. I am having good results with relatively few injuries.

That's exactly what I do also.
