OK, I just discovered this game was available a couple months ago. I've been recreating seasons from the 80s & 90s using the Statis Pro system & cards with quite a few modifications of my own.

Before I buy OOTP, here are some super basic questions:

1. I assume the game is downloaded to a hard drive rather than a web based software, right?

2. Can I force trade players? e.g. I love Jose Rijo & want him on my team. Can I trade him to my Cleveland Indians and give up Carlos Baerga for him? Would it let me trade Bill Wertz for him (I know, that would be totally unfair, but, hey, it's my simulation)??

3. Can I create a player from scratch or time travel a player? Could I put Babe Ruth on my Indians? My brother-in-law, Phil, who was a pretty decent slow-pitch second baseman?

Anything else I should know before I pull the trigger? Thanks!
