I love it when OOTP seems to reward well-rounded clubs and punish the one-trick ponies.

It actually bums me out - I so desperately wanted her club to become a perennial contender...Plus, I was a North Stars fan as a wee little lad in Alaska... I see that her GM, 62-year old Christopher Coyne (I need to make a Christopher Walken facegen for this guy!), favors hitting, vets, and defense... he also, strangely, favors speed over power (2nd in swiped bags, 4th in dingers)... They are 12th in D-Eff & Runs against - so, I question this guy's ability a bit. None of my business though. Shawna is the captain of her own ship and all that.
