There's also a new option for watching games between two computer-controlled teams. In previous versions, the plays and animations would zip by without stopping. So I've implemented a suggested option to require a click between each play (similar to the interface when you are controlling one or both teams). This option can be turned on in the Tools Menu, or by clicking the 'Pause' button on the Play-By-Play Screen.

Baseball Mogul 2025 adds detailed pitch-by-pitch data for more than 5,000 pitchers. This includes pitch arsenals and pitching styles for more than 59,000 pitcher-seasons from 1901 through 2024 and pitch usage patterns for more than 16,000 pitcher-seasons from 2002 through 2024. A "pitcher-season" is data for one season of a pitcher's career. For example, our database includes 14 pitcher-seasons for A.J. Burnett (2002-2015). New pitch ratings have been calculated for all pitchers based on available data regarding each pitch's effectiveness and usage rate, ensuring that Baseball Mogul continues to be the most realistic plate appearance simulator in video game history.
Update (November 2024): Replay Mode is being revised for Baseball Mogul 2025 to generate more realistic results for players with very little playing time in the given season (e.g. previous versions had trouble creating accurate ratings for a player with only a handful of plate appearances or batters faced). Baseball Mogul is a multi-season General Manager simulator in which player talent is calculated from overall career stats. An example can be seen below. Although Dwight Gooden pitched poorly in 1994, his ratings at the beginning of the season are quite high — because of his performance in the rest of his career. However, I've gotten a number of emails from people who would like to use Baseball Mogul to replay single historical seasons, in the same way that they might use a game like Strat-O-Matic or Season Ticket Baseball. Replay Mode makes this possible by determining each player's performance from their real-life statistics for the single season that is being simulated. This is Gooden's Scouting Report when a new game is started in Replay Mode: Replay Mode loads each player's historical stats for the season that is being simulated, and uses these as the player's "Predicted" stats for the upcoming season. Because Gooden had a bad year in 1994, his ratings are much lower than they were in the previous example. Playing Time Limits
Continued Development As mentioned above, Replay Mode is designed for single-season historical replays. Playing multiple seasons can cause problems — primarily because teams will no longer have enough playing time at every position. I could have limited Replay Mode to a single season, but I left it open so that I can continue to test and get feedback. If you are using Replay Mode in a multi-season sim, please let me know how I can improve this feature going forward. (For example, I could add a feature that forced team trades to match historical trades if there is enough interest.)
Thanks!
This brings up the Exhibition Game Dialog that lets you choose the home and away team for the game, and specify whether each team is controlled by a human or computer manager: My most recent test of this feature produced an amazing game between the 1985 Bears (15-1) and the 2007 Patriots (16-0):
