Posted: Sun Feb 26, 2006 7:26 amI haven't played netplay yet but it is included.
Version 11 will get you all of the 2005 players including those that don't make the cut with SOM.
I've set up leagues that mirror the one I'm in for SOM and done simulations but haven't run a league with 11 other players. Pretty sure that's part of the netplay though.

You can set the league so all games run automatically (for simming) or set your team to manual and all others to auto.

Posted: Sun Feb 26, 2006 6:16 pmMy only advice is to make sure you get the version that has the scanned cards for viewing. I don't see the need for the physical cards unless you want to play the board game.
IMO, anyone who has spent $50, should spend time playing the CD ROm game (or board).

Posted: Sun Feb 26, 2006 7:36 pm1) CDrom game comes with all MLB players on their appropriate teams. So you can play the Red Sox against everyone else.
2) It does have a draft feature where you can draft against the computer.
3) What Bleacher is saying is to order the correct version for what you want to do. You can order,
a) Just the game which has player stats,
b) a plus a scanned version of the player card. This is what Bleacher is saying to get and I recommend also. Just like the online version you can click on the player and see their card. But only with the card option.
c) The game, with or without the card image, AND the actual physical cards. If you don't have the board game the physical cards aren't necessary.
Sounds like B is what you want.
