The Revised Rule 2-10-2 says that the pre-game conference is with the umpires, both head coaches, and the team captains (if available) near home plate. The rationale for the revision is to reinforce the importance of the head coach attending the meeting. Previously, it was either the head coach or the captain.

So, as Tee said, if the pitcher is the captain and is warming up in the bullpen, it isn't necessary to drag him over to the plate for the conference.

Hope this clears it up.
