One thing I'd agree with Macon Noise (post below) about is that this game is infuriating! I have one team that is doing poorly but I knew it would because I made a major error in trading away draft picks. I started the season with that team playing for 2000 or 2001.
I have two other teams who keep frustrating me no end. I recognize that it's because the game is much harder than it looks.
What that really says is, that it's more like real baseball than it seems at first glance!
