GM of a AA Team?

[cavebutter]

I'm hanging around my universe, waiting to be offered a job, and browsing the histories of recently fired managers and gm's. One GM's history shows a long history of being the GM of a AA team. I don't think I've ever seen this before, but then I've not really paid that much attention to GM's histories other than my own.

Has anyone else noticed this or have a non-immersion breaking explanation?

I know one way you can see this is if for whatever reason in league creation you messed with the league structure somehow. For whatever reason a team created as a major league team ends up in the minors. There are created with a Owner, GM, etc but sine the league they end up in doesn't use them the engine never gets rid of them.

Or are they an independent team?

In terms of immersion...Minor League teams have GMs all the time. Especially non-affiliated or independent teams. They often go by a different handle and classically the GM tended to be the owner but independent/non-affiliated teams do sign and release their own players and should have a GM. GMs do alot more than just move players around.
