This way, you're not wasting rookie service time on a prospect the manager is going to sit on the bench or wasting money on the gold glove caliber free agent SS who becomes a late inning replacement only. Now that would be pretty sweet in my opinion.
Yes, I'm not looking for a scripted conversation, just the overall concept. I'd like to know what my manager thinks of a player before I make a move to acquire them. Same thing would be useful in spring training too.
