The only problem is that you can be tempted to buy some. 2. Are you using the game (auto draft) to draft the players? Yes But I have found that the computer tends to leave a few positions with not enough at bats to play a season so after round 16 I go thru each of the computers teams and see what position or positions is most needed. I list 2 to 3 positions in order for each computer team. For rounds 17 and 18 (also 19 if needed) I draft the player with the most at bats for that position for the computer team. I also will not draft pitchers for my own team in rounds 17 and 18. 3. Are you using the standard 1966 data base ($14.95)? yes I let the computer generate a schedule for each league (no inter league play). I want to try the same thing, so any tips would be greatly appreciated. After I finish the draft I generate manager profiles for each team (4 man rotation) and I go through each of the computers teams to make adjustments so someone with 100 AB's is not the starting left fielder and someone with 100 IP is not in the full time rotation. Sometimes you have to go into the bench or spot starters and put in starting percentages to make things work out. Also some teams will have to go to a 5 man rotation. There will be a World Series but it will be between the team in each league with the best record (just like in real life) with no wild cards or division winners. Best of luck Wade Thank you and good luck!
