Excel Baseball Game/Simulation - Major League Manager!

My great friend has built an awesome Baseball Game and Simulator in Microsoft Excel and I think everyone should download it at this link: http://dynamogames.bravehost.com
and try it out! One of the coolest things about the simulation portion of the game is it accurately forecasted the 2007 League championship winners (Rockies and Red Sox) and the 2007 World Series winner (Red Sox.)

Here is a quick game overview:

- MLM is incredibly simple and intuitive. When batting, the player selects one of four batter options. When in the field, the player selects one of five pitch selections. That’s the only inputs other than preferences or player substitutions.

- The player does NOT control the pitch, the swing of the bat, etc. via a joystick or other mechanism. Outcomes are based on actual player statistics and random numbers. A player that has never played the game can compete with an experienced player immediately.

- MLM can be played player vs. player, player vs. computer, or computer vs. computer. Players have a wide option of preferences.

Here are some screenshots:
