Do you approach an evaluator? Do you let it go?

I wouldn't. If the evaluator is there, they'll find the garbage soon enough. I don't think you would add anything to the critique of the garbage that they wouuldn't see anyway.

Now, if you are at a field and see something happening that affects the game in a negative way, call your UIC or whoever, only if no one is there. There are some very, very, very good umpires here in North Texas and some very, very, very bad umpires also. While I would much rather call a game with the former, it is very seldom that I would refuse to work with the latter. Actually, there are only 2 of these, one who has promised to take a swing at me and one who just doesn't care if he calls a good game or not, as long as he gets paid. All the UIC's I work with know this and never even try to put us on the same field.

I guess what it boils down to is, if there are people present who do the evaluating, let them do their job. If not, let someone know there may be a problem then let the proper people take care of it.
