MLB Front Office Manager lets gamers do everything a real-life baseball GM can do to develop a team from Spring Training through a full MLB season, into the playoffs and the World Series. Using Major League teams and players, gamers will create their own fictional baseball universe and build their reputation into elite status. Gamers can replace aging veterans with rookies, scout the Minor Leagues, make blockbuster trades, and even participate in bidding wars for posted players from Japan as they make their way to the Hall of Fame.

    MLB Front Office Manager needs a lot of work to be ready for the big leagues. The game offers an impressive amount of depth and great support for online leagues, especially for management-sim-deprived consolers. But playing it is such a chore that anyone seriously interested in such simulations will quickly move on to a more serious, if PC-only, effort like Out of the Park Baseball.

    A lethal combination of clunky menus, lack of guidance, and general tedium combine to make Front Office Manager a dud. There is potential, but engaging anyone other than the most ardent rotisserie geek is going to be a major stretch. We appreciate the effort, but aren’t thrilled with the results.

    I love the GM aspects of sports games. In fact, I spend more time building the league's best team than playing the actual games. So something like MLB Front Office is exactly the kind of game that appeals to me.

    If anyone should like this game, it's me. I knew what the super-2 arbitration exception was going in, and I can quote the rules for draft pick compensation for free agent losses by heart. However, this title fails in every meaningful way outside of faithfully recreating MLB rules regarding player salaries
