I don't even watch baseball and I know that all you have to do to beat this game is to pick the new york yankees and you'll get to spend several billion dollars in the offseason.

waste of money if you ask me.

I like the fact that they got Billy Beane to be an expert consultant. I think it is definitely worth a look.

This game alone may force my hand to acquire 360 or PS3......very cool.

P.S. the MLB Network is money!!!

Could be interesting but I'll probably spend my money on MLB the show. I love road to the show mode.

I'm for sure going to rent it. The game might get too boring for me. As far as MLB 09 goes.... I WANT IT NOW:tantrum:

This reminds me of the glory days of MicroLeague Baseball games in my college dorm. I think I'll have to get it.

In addition to an offline career spanning 30 seasons, you can even pit your GM skills online against up to 29 other players in an online dynasty.

I am so there. Release date Jan. 26.
