Out of the Park
Management games, of any genre, are not for the faint-hearted. Not only is there a mountain of information to deal with, but if you're into the subject matter, it doesn't take long before the simulator takes over your entire life.
If baseball is what gets you cooking on gas, prepare to say goodbye to your family, become a recluse, and thrive on a world of management decisions and statistics: Out of the Park 9 is available on Linux.
Out of the Park 9 is, as the name suggests, the latest in a long line of baseball management games, but this incarnation is the first for Linux. It's no half-baked port either, as it has a proper installer and runs without the need for Wine or any other wrapper. Installing is simple - the only unusual dependency is that you have MySQL installed.
If you've not run a management game before, you'd be well advised to read the manual before you begin. Well, we say read, but you're better off skimming through it, because at over 600 pages you'd be spending more time reading than playing.
