Here is just one example. I've got the ace of my staff struggling. 3-4 bad starts in a row. What are things I can do to try and help him get out of his funk? Can I commit my pitching coach to spend more time with him? Are there manager "tasks" I can use to try and get him out of the skid? Maybe it works, maybe it doesn't. Maybe having a better coaching staff will increase the odds it helps him get back on track. That might not even be the best idea, but it would at least give me a little more control of what's going on. If my ace is getting bombed in his last 5 starts, I'm absolutely helpless, and I don't think it should be that way.

and to "piggyback"....what about news stories indicating a player is struggling...but there does need to be ways to communicate to both players and staff.
