I've been playing a few months but I'm not sure what to make of this. I have a third baseman and a catcher on my roster, and the third baseman only has a rating at 1st base (9 out of 100) while the catcher is rated ok at 1st base (44 out of 100), but only 7 out of 100 at catcher. Should I assume the 3B is only useful as a DH, and the catcher shouldn't be allowed to catch? The 3B I can understand as he is 34 and probably has lost his ability to play defense, but the "catcher" is only 24 and should be considered a 1B. Is this typical, and am I right to keep these two away from their listed positions?
