Suggestion
Have coaches start out being very good teachers (possibly excelling in one of the 3 teaching areas), and then develop their ability to handle players.
Reason
Realism. Most coaches IRL are initially hired because they are already good at teaching their craft. The ones that then learn to "handle" players are the ones that progress into managers. Managers main job is handling the personalities and issues of the team, teaching is left to others at that point. Also, this allows you to place good teachers in the minors, helping in player development. Right now, the best teachers are also the best hanlders and/or are already in the majors. Sending them down to the minors (where teaching is more important) is like a demotion. And like player development, perhaps some would develop handling abilities well and move into management whereas others never will and remain career coaches.
