Thanks.....
Yes it is possible. Just because you want him to learn it does not mean he will be competent at that position.

The first things to look at are his fielding ratings.
Outfield Range, Error and Arm
Or
Infield Range, Error, Arm and Turn DP.

From this information I make an assessment if he is capable of competence before I try.

In the player strategy screen (Player Profile=>Action=>Set Game Strategy) there is an option at the lower left “Force Start/Use At Position”. This will allow you to lock the player in at the position.

I recommend checking the AI manager’s decision after you use this. If you force a guy to a position and he is clearly the inferior player you may be relegating him to back up on the depth chart.

Good luck,
LP
