All right... so the guy in question (the screen shot above) is a General Manager. And so I need to take a look at General Managers to understand the problem, or lack of problem in this case.
General Managers seem to be the only "management" job that really makes sense to me, now that I'm looking at it.
In my league there are 38 people with preferred occupation of General Manager. 8 people have no jobs, the New York Mets have 2 General Managers (not sure how, but clicking their cards say they're both the GM) and I'm a general manager.
They all "suck". The best rating guy is:
teach hitting: 10
teach pitching: 10
teach fielding: 11
handle rookies: 3
handle veterans: 4
handle players: 3
The average ratings for the guys with jobs:
teach hitting: 4.2
teach pitching: 4.27
teach fielding: 4.57
handle rookies: 2.5
handle veterans: 2.9
handle players: 2.63
Not all of the guys with no jobs are worse... one guy is 6-6-6-3-3-3
Some of the guys with jobs really look to suck... one is 1-1-1-1-2-2
So GMs are decided on, not by their skills in teaching and handling but by their preferences... this makes sense since they don't teach or handle players. Everything should be about whether or not they like veterans or prospects, favor speed or power... etc.
Like I said, it's the only one of the "management" positions that make sense.
So, I don't see a bug here... on the contrary I'm quite pleased to see this.
Thanks for bringing this up though, without it I wouldn't have delved into the GMs and seen that one section of the "management" area does indeed make sense.
