A story here from SFGate.com on Jackie Autry, and how happy she thinks Gene would be with this team.
One of the reasons the Angels never won under Gene Autry was that he always wanted stars on his team to compete with the Dodgers. However, rather than grow his own, he went for other teams stars, and unfortunately, when he got them, they were usually on the downside of their careers. This is a very different team than one Gene Autry would have built, and probably has a better chance of winning than any team Gene ever built.
