If Lawrie does end up playing some at 2B in real life, maybe it would be worthwhile giving him a bad rating there, but I don't think that will happen.

Well this makes sense, and also makes me sad that I wasted about 2 hours of my life adjusting various players to add positions they've played in the past that were not included in their OOTP profile.
What about Buster Posey? He played some 1B for the Giants, along with of course being a great catcher.....I would assume that his skill & hitting ability at catcher would make the AI play him there and find an alternate at 1B even if Posey was eligible there....
