I am starting to become obsessed with this game. I love the GM function. In my Astros francise I traded Hildalgo and Reynolds to Florida for Pudge and a prospect. Anyway I love the way the other teams GM gives feedback. It was apparent that Florida wanted pitching and wasn't gong to give up until I gave it to them. I went back and forth trying different combonations. The coolest part was when I put Dotel on the block, he pleaded for me not to trade him. I found myself treating these players as if they were real. So I took his name off because I didn't want to trade him either. In some games if you offer enough the CPU will trade anybody but I like the way the CPU set francise players that it won't trade regardless of what you offer. Montreal refused to trade Vladimir. The funny thing was after I acquired Pudge, my starting catcher, Ausmus' loyalty started to decline. After including him and Vizcaino in several offers there loyalty drop to F. I traded them because I figured that since they were unhappy I would be able to resign them next season. I spent about 45 minutes just bargaining back and forth.
On another topic have any of you XBOX guys used the white button (Quick key)between pitches. This is an awesome feature I don't know if it is in the PS2 version. It tells you the stats of the person at bat and the currnt stats of the picther . You can access you line up without having to enter a separate screen, check on your bullpen's status and my favorite track the path of the last pitch.
I usually read the manual thoroughly but I didn't see that function listed. I saw it on the load screen. Anyway I'm loving this game, to bad I'm at work and have to wait to play.
