    Saddled with bad coaches

    Am I missing something with some of these coaches? In my Mariners franchise, I've got two coaches who do NOTHING but negatives, stat-wise, to my players. Are there other stats that aren't shown that they benefit?

    One of these guys is signed to a four-year contract worth something like $2.5 million, so if I want to kick his less-than-useless *** to the curb, I'd need to pay him a huge chunk of cash for the right to do so.

    I don't really get how a coach could be an unalloyed detriment to the team, unless his last name started with the name "Valentine." But whatever, if I could get rid of him without breaking the bank. That they're often signed to multi-year deals is silly.

    I like challenges like this in Franchise Mode. It makes the GM side of me feel all warm and fuzzy.

        He'll have to buy out the contract though. That's the dilemma.

          Yeah I kind of agree with you. It's like that with the Cubs, too, so I just bit the bullet and re-tooled the staff.

            I'm finding it realistic as a Mets fan. All my coaches suck.
