I remember seeing a post about this but could not find it via the search.

When I start as unemployed, and later add myself to a team via commish mode, how do I get it so I actually have a contract with $ and year? Is the only way to do this to wait for a 'real' offer to come through?

How long would I have to manage before a MLB team comes calling? Am I better off not taking a job and waiting or should I start building my resume in the minors etc?

FWIW, I saw that the Dodgers fired their GM about 1.5 months into the season. However, I could not apply for this position in any way shape or form. I guess I just need some info on how this all works.

Thanks.
