For example, you click Visit Mound in the first inning and the box pops up. Inside the box, all four of the pitchers pitches are shown with green bars. In the eighth inning maybe the fastball has gone to light yellow, the slider light green, and the curve solid green. Etc. The other idea is for the catcher's "wisdom" rating plus the skill of the pitching coach would determine how accurate these pitch status indicators are. The may be way off or right on depending. The pitching coach's rating would of course add more weight to the assessment. Does that make sense to anybody?

This would be really cool to have added, and something I haven't seen suggested yet.
However, I highly doubt that is a feature that could be added, even within the next couple of versions of OOTP, and certainly probably not for XI. If it can even be done (I'm not a a very good programmer, so I don't even know how Markus would go about programming this into the game.)
But nevertheless, I will keep this suggestion in mind, and give it an extra endorsement here, even if it doesn't see the light of day for another two versions or so.
