MLB Front Office Manager allows a player to take the role of a baseball general manager over the course of a thirty-year career; the goal is to perform well enough to become inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame. The player's GM is rated on eight disciplines including North American scouting, international scouting, pro-league scouting, player development, trades, contract negotiation, owner confidence and leadership. GMs also have former career backgrounds (i.e. ex-manager, lawyer, business person, former player, or talent scout) that affect the GM's disciplines. A GM's ratings improve or regress over his career depending on their performance and will have seasonal goals depending on the club they're hired by. The player will be faced with decisions such as spring training evaluation, initiate and respond to trades, develop rookies, and even bid for Japanese baseball players. The game also promises advanced AI-controlled GMs who have unique motivations.

An obtuse interface makes MLB Front Office Manager bewildering even to baseball-sim veterans. The Good - Impressive depth for a console-centric sports management sim - Good presentation values. The Bad - Absolutely abysmal interface - Complete lack of personality when dealing with player transactions - AI managers regularly make bizarre decisions. Sports management simulations have finally hit the big time.
