From negotiating trades to scouting new talent, MLB Front Office Manager has all the complexity and realism I could hope for in a game that is simulating what it means to be a Major League Baseball manager," said Oakland Athletics' General Manager Billy Beane. "I'm excited to be a part of a game that gives people a real world experience at what it's like to be in my shoes and take on the responsibility of building a Major League Baseball team.

Matt Holiday got traded to the Oakland Athletics today, and well . . . it's just another question I have in mind for the upcoming MLB FRONT OFFICE MANAGER game due out in January '09.

Since this happened post WS '08, are we expected to compete for Matt Holiday against Mr. Money Ball himself?

Or will this be an "auto-add" that we can't override?

I really can't stand playing realistic "sim" games without the most current rosters, tendencies, etc . . . so where will this transaction fall?

I guess time will tell, but I wish someone else would tell me sooner.
