MLB Manager 2015: Still the Best

And when you're away, or just hanging around the house without your computer nearby, you can still enjoy team management on the go with MLB Manager 2015 for Android and iOS (iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch). It also features an official MLB.com license, with current day and historical team logos as well as the World Series trophy. It also includes 2015 Opening Day rosters, a new Shop a Player function, new support for long-term simming, and much more.

"There is no better simulation game out there for mobile," Jonathan Mitchell said at The Florida Post. And it's just $4.99, which is a bargain for hours and hours of fun.

Readying a New Generation For Baseball Jobs With OOTP

Zach Binkley, an assistant professor at Lewis University in Illinois, recently started a new Data and Analytics in Sport class at the school, and to help bolster the curriculum, he looked to Out of the Park Baseball. "I was envisioning the ability to use a simulation to build projections and plans and strategize," he told us. "The ability to … have a top-down organization model based on simulated data was something I was looking for so students could put themselves in the shoes of professionals."

To learn more, including how two of his students ended more than a century of frustration with OOTP, check out the article on our blog.

And if you're interested in using OOTP in a class or after-school club, or know a teacher who might want to, get in touch via our contact page. We're happy to provide free copies of the game for use in K-12 and higher education settings.

If you think you might fit the bill, check out the job opening on our forum.
