Here's one: the ability to control what skills minor leaguers focus on, ala Spring Training. Right now, the only area of control is having him learn a new precision (with imprecise tradeoffs). In reality, teams strategize with their minor league coaches what skills they want their youngsters to focus on (like the A's, with taking walks, or the Rays, with pitchers getting injured). It doesn't need to even have a major impact on the game, just something to play around with in order to be able to do more with the minor league system.

Also, add baserunning/stealing as a skill to focus on along with contact, power, eye, fielding and learn a new position. That's something that should be improvable (if that's a word).
