Firings before November?
As of right now, most AI managers and GMs don't get fired until after the season. In real-life, these guys usually get fired right after the season is over. If we had this happen in OOTP it would give us more options for hiring a manager and/or GM.

In my league which has 5 ML's 12 mgrs have been fired, 4 from minor leagues. I would guess it does happen 10% of the time which may be too low for RL, but I also feel the AI gives up on talented mgrs too early. Why fire a mgr after a record of 70-92 when you are an expansion team and your mgr is legendary in all ratings?

Sorry my reading skills may be off today but I can't see the difference between "after the season" and "right after the season is over". What exactly is the timeline? After the WS or by Nov 15th? I'd suggest there is a domino effect. Most teams should wait until other mangers/coaches come onto the market before making changes.

Honestly I think there should be one day where all these 'pent up' coaches who have been fired/let go/contracts expired hit the market. The way it is right now, you have to play each day in September and watch the Available Personell screen for new entrants.

Granted my unierse covers many leagues but as I stated earlier I have seen many including minor league mangers which I dont think I ever noticed before. Earliest I have seen someone fired this season was mid june and that was the minor league guy.
