Managers and Sponsorships in DD

I have to say, I really dislike this suggestion.
2K is a good example of what happens with something like this. You have 1-2 coaches that are objectively the best (or best for the meta) and it leads to everyone using the same coaches. You simply add an additional tier of cards, which doesnt influence lineup creation one bit.

Point taken, it would need to have it's complexities to where these quirks only affected certain player types in certain situations.

I'm in...off the top of my head on managers:
Bobby Cox
Tommy Lasorda
Sparky Anderson
Billy Martin
Joe Torre
Just need a wide range of managers to pick from...Cox would give your team a boost if he gets thrown out! -
It'd be awesome if there were some drawbacks to each option, as well. Makes it a little more RPGish, which they've said they're aiming for.
Bruce Bochy: +15% bullpen stamina, -10% power
Aaron Boone: +10% power, - 15% vision
etc. etc. etc. -
I just need a guy who yells, "Don't drop the ball, you goddamn idiot, or I will rob your house in the 4th inning!"

No thank you, coaches/managers just become pack filler

Unemployment perk. Collect 100 extra stubs at the end of every game played

Hinch = 60% boost to Plate Vision. -40% to Reaction.
Cora = 40% boost to Clutch. Guess pitch turned on, -90% to Potential.

Sparky Anderson could adjust the dimensions of the field after examining the opponent's lineup.
