Mid way through my first season and I'm ahead of Houston by 2 games (fictional). I know the interface pretty well and I agree with lynchjm24, it's not a game I can just sit down for 15 mins and play.. takes me an hour or so to really get things rolling, which isn't a bad thing.. there is a TON of baseball information at your mouse pointer.
I have coaches turned off, is there a way to still be more of a "gm" and watch a game, like how you can with the All Star game? If I bring a AAA player up, I like to watch his first game.. but I don't think there is a way around managing the game?
