Silly Question about Coaches/Managers

[ncbravesfan]

Do these ever get updated when they are not the real coach or manager? I'm guessing that there are licensing issues that prevent guys like Bud Black or certain base coaches like Ron Washington to be in the game. It would be nice if they could be updated like players or at the very least, have an editing function where we could update them. I love the realism of this game, including seeing the actual managers come out to make pitching changes or the actual base coaches waving a guy home. But it kind of loses a little bit when this unknown bearded manager is at the helm for Colorado or this light skinned guy is waving guys home in Atlanta. Not a huge deal, but just wondering.

It would be cool if we were given the ability to customize the coaches and non-real managers (like Bud Black). But there are bigger fish to fry regarding the bugs/issues the current game has.

I wish by now you could edit the fake managers and coaches if only in looks and name. Same goes for the scouts, they always have some weird name, the game seem to think most of the scouts are Asian, and while I know its not important nor does it impact the play of the game, I do find it annoying. After all these years Im surprised they have made the fake coaches, managers and scouts editable.
