    Re: Playing All 162 Games

    I've never done it but this year I will. I got one more series until All Star break so I'm moving along good.

    I'm having a blast with my Mets! David Wright is having an MVP type season. He leads the league in avg .340, has 9 hr, 51 rbi, 26 doubles so far. I threw a no hitter with Wheeler, which is just awesome when you can do that.

    I'm just enjoying playing every game so much this year.

      Re: Playing All 162 Games

      I'm 5 games shy of it with last year's game. I have the Braves, and home field is locked up. I used a three run homer by Russell Martin in the All Star game to lock it for the World Series. Freeman won the home run contest. And Heyward looks to be a shoe in for the triple crown despite having worse attributes than Upton and Freeman. Everyone else is performing like themselves. Upton is a bit off hitting .250-17-78. And since I'm playing Hall of Fame, by pitchers are last in the league in strikeouts. But I haven't played much since the birth of my daughter. But given how they broke up the roster in real life, I can't carry this team through to this years.

        I played full seasons in MVP '05 and MLB The Show '13.
        I lost in the ALCS with the Yankees to the Red Sox in MVP.
        I won the World Series with the Yankees in Show '13.

          Played all 162 in MLB '14 with Pittsburgh. Finished 82-80, 3 GB of CIN. No playoffs

          Played 120-130 games in MLB '15 with Pitt in my carry over save. I was getting dusted in both the division and WC race so I simmed the final month+ and ended up 84-78, 11 GB in division and like 9 in WC. I had no shot unless I won like 85% of my games, which wasn't gonna happen.

          So now I'm in Year #3 with Pitt and a few games under .500 about 20 games in. I need to experience some playoff baseball!

            And yet you keep playing with the Pirates?

              Im gonna try to start one up. What are some tips to staying active? 162 with the same teams seems like A LOT of games.

                  I always play every ML game for my franchises. I wish I had more time to play all my minor league games as well. As it is, I'll play when a phenom pitcher is on the hill or I want to get a look at a hitter that's coming along, etc.

                      Towards the end of May in my Royals chise, I'm having a lot of fun with this team and I just hope it doesn't grow stale on me like last year. Made it to August before I simmed the rest of the year but I accredit that to being in a big division lead. I don't think I'll be leaving the Tigers in the dust, I can't wait for the battle down the stretch.

                        I just made it to the all-star break. 88 games into my franchise with the Angels and I'm 47-41 2.5 games behind the Astros. The all-star break is perfect timing because I'm going on vacation for a week and won't be playing. I can't ever recall playing a full 162 except for maybe World Series BB circa '94.


                        I've had my ups and downs throughout the season as far as continuing playing but now I feel like I'm in a groove. I tinkered with my roster here and there. Nothing big but if they were a role player and I struggled with them they were gone. I think that is one way to keep you interest going. Make subtle changes to your roster so you have variety.

                          Im currently using the Pawsox in a Franchise which is 144 games... I sim the Boston Red Sox and Portland Sea Dogs season and play strictly as the Pawsox. The last full 162 game season I played in was on the first PlayStation and it was MLB 2003 from 989 sports which as most of you know is now The Show.

                            I haven't ever played all 162, but the goal is to try harder this year. With the combination of Rory Golf, rubberband A.I and Madden 16 it will be tough.
