Any thoughts to having the ability for other teams to snatch up other bench coaches/pitching coaches to be their manager? Also, could we get more updates/news updates for those? Typically there are about 6-10 coaching changes following a season and many more bench, pitching and hitting coaches. Doesn't happen as often in OOTP.
I love seeing in the off-season of real MLB the coaching carrousel. |

I'd love to see the ability to sign coaches from other teams (it's been on my wishlist too for a few versions), but I don't think it's going to make it in for release. I might try to sneak it in after release, though.

Being able to sign other teams managers/coaches would be awesome.

I agree that this would be a nice addition BUT please don't make it too easy to do or it could be another area where Human teams could take advantage of the AI. Also in online leagues it could could get out of hand with people just doing it to hurt the competition. So you should be able to lure a coach away but it shouldn't be an automatic type thing for every coach/manager.

Yes please, been asking for this for years. Least realistic part of the simulation (even if it doesn't matter that much)

Can we please have the ability to view a coach's PLAYER DEVELOPMENT INFLUENCE and PLAYER RELATIONSHIPS ratings on the available personnel tab?? These two items are unbelievably crucial to hiring the right personnel, and it takes forever to click into each coach to find the right one. If it was sortable on the available personnel tab, you'd save GMs who play with full personnel on hours and hours of time!!

Can we have a toggle button in options in case we want to turn it off though?

This is just an assumption, but based on how I thought this works, I think it is a combination of both their ability + their relationships with the players on the team. |

Are current personnel, such as Don Mattingly, Dave Roberts, etc., going to be linked to their player profile so that duplicate coaches aren't created in later years?

Would love to see an implementation of a coaching carousel. Like NCAA 13 had. It would be awesome to work your way up the coaching ladder from the minors all the way to the show.

also what exactly do all of the coaching ratings even mean? It would be nice just to have some clarity. Tired of playing the guessing game and tediously picking guys that I feel would fit my scheme without knowing if it's actually changing anything or not. Also the coaches need more personality. Make them "feel" more alive somehow.
