Well, a recent look at his numbers makes me wonder if a bullpen-starved team (Arizona? Milwaukee?) might take a chance on the 37-year-old based on his work this season.

Although there’s nothing wrong with the way the old three-button Genesis control scheme has been mapped to the Xbox 360 (I like that both “X” and the trigger fire), the game itself feels most outdated here.

Your ship handles extremely well, allowing you to safely bob and weave through streams of enemy projectiles. The R1 shoulder button is used to cycle through your three available weapons, but all other functions are mapped to the face buttons. You’ll pretty much hold down “X” throughout — in fact, the game suggests as much early on — and that fires your primary gun. Beyond the three functions of your main gun, there’s also a shockwave and a screen clearing limit attack.
