What I try to do, (it doesn't work well for me because I hate simming) is to play games with division rivals, good pitching matchups, etc, and sim the rest. If I could stop myself from playing a game just because, I would play maybe 1 or 2 games a week, as this would allow me to get through an entire season playing only 45 games or so. In reality, I play probably 4 games a week, meaning I end up playing around 90-100 games per season.
If you want to make it through more than 1 season, the more you can sim the better. I would just recommend saving after each series, and looking back at the box scores, transactions, etc, so you still feel like you're controlling your team. I've simmed 3 weeks at a time before, and felt like I didn't know who was contributing on my team, and who wasn't pulling their weight.
You have to put in a lot of time outside of playing the game to set ticket prices, determining what to spend money on, looking for trades, etc, so there is a lot more involvment than in RTTS. Obviously, it will take longer to get through a season than RTTS, but how long it takes is ultimately up to how many games you want to play, and how involved you want to get into the off the field choices.

yeah i have to agree, simming is a hit or miss. i really need to do it soemtimes so i can keep my franchise moving, there just isnt enough time for me to play every single game. but i try to play at least one game in every series so i can see all the stadiums and teams. i never sim more than two games in a row in this case, cuz i feel the same way. i feel less in control of my team.
