Do you play every game in your franchise/season? If not, how many?

Yes, but I can finish half a season usually.

This is usually who I approach it. Play a handful of games right off the bat then sim through the starters with a week or so in-between. Provided the sim stats are realistic, it makes for a pretty good overall product.

honestly I hardly ever get too deep in my franchise before I get an idea for a new one. Then I want to just sim and develop my players and draft

Play em all...all 162...every pitch.

I have to, i simply cant bear the end results to be anything other than "mine" if you get that.

Simming is a dirty word to me lol.

Perhaps a little bit of OCD, what can i say, we all have it in us

I simmed the start of the season to play 'catch up' then played every game so far on roughly the same day as the real Marlins play.

Planning on playing the whole season the same way to see how my virtual franchise does compared to the real one.

I like to progress well into franchise so I play 1, sim 5. Last year I was able to complete 5 full seasons and get a few of my drafted players to the bigs.

I’m thinking with the addition of quick counts I will be able to play more and sim less. Not sure what the ratio will be yet though.

A much underrated feature has me doing a new method this year.

Player lock.

Playing one full game a series and then player locking arandom player for the rest. Been using the marlins and its a joy player locking stanton.

I might be the only one but I choose Season mode instead of Franchise and do a 58 games season. That way, I can play multiple seasons during a year.
