Bench coach

DiMaggio5CF · 06-28-2002, 04:12 PM

What would Joe Torre be without Don Zimmer?

I would like to see the addition of an optional bench coach.

You can either fill this role or leave it vacant.

If you leave it vacant, you're on your own like the game is now.

But if you select a bench coach, he will give you advice.

He'll give you advice on when you should take a pitcher out, which reliever you should go to, and if you should send up a pinch hitter.

He can also give you helpful reminders, like reminding you of a heavy hitter on the opposition's bench, or of lefty/righty matchups.

good point. EX: LHP Tom Glavine is struggling and Bobby Cox see's him in a 4-2 game with men on 1&2, u can like hit a option that says ask bench coach, in this case, Leo Mazonni, and then u ask him, u can like send him out to talk to glavine, or send the catcher to the mound, or make a change or whatnot, like warmup the pen or whateer.
