I don't see anything wrong with adding mentors if it was done in good taste. The game already has features that we don't know how to quantify in real life.
How much does the leadership trait affect OOTP or real life? What about work ethic? How much improvement can someone gain from working hard? How do you quantify that? If you can't quantify it in real life then how does OOTP model it?
What about coaching? How much did Dave Righetti help Tim Lincecum? How much of an impact did Ron Washington had in helping the Rangers get to the World Series? What about OOTP coaches?
How come certain young players respond better by being thrown in the fire; while other youngsters respond better by sitting and watching? Which players like to be challenged while others babied?
How does unhappiness and morale affect performance? How much of a performance hit does a player get from being unhappy?
We don't have answers to this yet OOTP models it.
