Suggestion
Add back mail notifications when a player in the minor leagues has obtained a rating at a new position.

This could be an XML message. With conditions, we could write a bunch of different options based on the rating. So, if they're a 20 out of 20, we could write something like,

"Hey boss, just wanted to let you know that Marquis Holdstrum has been a revelation at 2B at AA Winnepesauke. He's scooping up everything that gets thrown at him. We never expected him to be this fluid, but he could be a fixture at this spot if we need him to be."

Or whatever.

Reason
When you're trying to train a player at a new position in the minor leagues, it's helpful to know when the player is finally making some progress. Much easier than constantly checking every player, and the more minor leagues you have, the worse this is.

Priority
Low
