Try turning off D3D. D3D makes everything transparent and hard to read. If you wanna keep D3D try downloading either the Twins, Drays, or Phillies skin from
www.baseballsimcentral.com I have to run D3D because my monitor is from the dark ages and those skins should work fine for reading text. Also, be sure to run OOTP in 1064x786 or whatever that resolution is. That should fix the problems.
