I think a lot of this has to do with the term "projected" changes.
A change is a change. If a coach comes to the umpire and makes a change, it takes effect immediately.
If the coach makes a statement along the lines of "in the next inning", or as in the OP (two changes involving the same player), to me, that is a projected change as they are asking for something to take effect in the future.
