Now, with styles and personalities, coaches may matter more to me.

One thing for sure is that I am turning coaching back on in my game for the first time in several versions of OOTPB.
Quoting myself . . . because I can!

What a great handling of this topic in one respect: As GM, I certainly want to retain the capability of hiring/firing team personnel, particularly the manager. But although I have done what I bolded above, I certainly appreciate the assistant GM handling the hiring/firing of minor league personnel.

I may not get to know those guys down there as well as I should, being lazy and allowing the AGM to do my job, but I appreciate having the option of being lazy if I want to.

Well done, here. Another one of those minor enhancements that can really affect game enjoyment: Assistant General Manager. (AKA, flunky doing the jobs I don't want to do. )
