I read through what I can find in discussion of previous versions of OOTP regarding having an Asst. GM, but wanted to make sure nothing has changed with the 21 edition.

If I am controlling everything myself, is there a reason to pay for an Asst. GM? Should I just leave the position unfilled and save the money?

Since I am new to the game, I am enjoying being a micro-manager in a historical sim as it helps me see quickly bad decisions that I have made. As such, I am controlling everything in the majors and minors, and the Asst. GM does nothing but collect a paycheck.

Well, my current Asst GM does message me with "insightful" suggestions like: "There is a young guy named Barry Bonds playing in Class A for this other organization. We should try to acquire him to improve our outfield and offense."

I should go into the editor and change the Asst.'s name to "Captain Obvious" or "Sgt. Self-Evident."
