Baseball Manager 2010 for iPhone released

9 February 2010 by Shaun One Comment

bmFizz Software has released Baseball Manager 2010 for the iPhone and it looks quite good (if you like Baseball). Obviously being from the UK it is a sport which I find even less interesting than Cricket, but what do I know…

“At last a baseball manager simulation for the iPhone and iPod Touch has arrived. Baseball Manager can be described as Fantasy Baseball meets The Sims.

You take control of your favorite baseball team and guide them through spring training, the regular season into the post season and hopefully all the way to the World Series. You control everything from player trading and contract negotiations to choosing the starting lineup for each game.

Choose any team from the top two leagues. Trade players, negotiate contracts, deal with your team owner on your path to glory.

Qualify through the regular season to the post season, win the league championship series to reach the world championship series in order to fill your trophy cabinet. Your status will record historical achievements even if you change jobs.

Use the information from your staff to help choose the starting lineup, remember to pick your top pitchers in rotation to avoid them burning out to early in the season. You will have to deal with injuries, whilst fending off the opposition from poaching your players. View detailed information about your player’s skill, statistics and contract, all in a simple to use interface.

Farm your young prospects out to the minor leagues to help them gain skills and form, but beware the senior players wont be happy in the minor leagues.

Check out the free agent list to identify players and strengthen your rosters, or just listen to your chief scout. After all he does have a great eye for a player within your budget.”

    I think I’ve nailed down Shaun’s two pet hates.
    1) The iPhone keyboard.
    2) Cricket.

    The iPhone keyboard is understandable but the lack of appreciation of cricket can only be because of your northern roots? Only kidding … ;-)

    Baseball is a poor man’s version of cricket but when I lived in the USA I grew to love it as I was starved of cricket. Again, omly a playful jobe my American friends.
