 I couldn't tell you what batter is next in the lineup. I certainly don't check with each batter. That job is left to the DC, not me.
If a coach comes to me and makes a lineup change, I'm verifying the player coming in is eligible to enter in that spot, then allowing it. Whether it's the next batter or not, I don't care.

Coach:  "Blue, I'm sending # 1 in to pinch run for # 2 at second base.  # 2 will re-enter."

 That's my idea, too. I've also heard (when on offense), "Blue, I'm subbing in these people to the first three spots coming up (info given). If any of them get on base, I'm putting in this person to the fourth spot."
