For the record, I am *enjoying* the game this far. But I like the building phase of pretty much any sim, so take that for what it's worth.
I guess I over-scrimped in my total slash-and-burn approach and got fired from Baltimore after a .500 season, and headed to tiny-market Oakland. I just finished the 2005 season (5th total, my 3rd in OAK) and with the league's lowest payroll by far, we posted the best record in baseball, tied with Baltimore (basically built on my foundation, then added several free agents with the money I saved them).
Right on target, in other words.
