Suggest having 4 Sim games a day at a minimum instead of 3. Otherwise players will lose interest considering the length of spring training + one week lag between end of playoffs and start of spring training. | ||

It allows time to assess lineups, rotations, minor leaguers (who I mostly ignore during the regular season), and the new competition in the league. I also usually shuffle players in asnd out and around in the spring, so three games a day is basically perfect. Beyond that, Steve has meticulously created a schedule that fits perfectly to the real world calendar. If you'll notice, spring training always starts on Friday and Cup play kicks off two Mondays after that. That is a purposeful, necessary design to have league and Cup play align properly for the season's schedule. |
