Sports games from the big publishers are getting better and better at providing what amounts to a TV-quality view of the sports field that gives you a real sense of being, say, a baseball player on the field. And that's a nice fantasy. But... what if you prefer to fantasize about owning or managing your own baseball team?

In that case, what you want is Baseball Mogul. It's a game of franchise management, not on-field management. No, you won't get a high-end 3D experience here, but what you will get is the kind of game that makes you think like, and face the kinds of decisions faced by, the owner of a big league team.
