As a follow-up question, do you know any conditions under which the AI will shift players around the diamond? I don't know if I've ever seen it happen.
I'd say it moves too many players around too often and have campaigned to get it reduced. I've also whined incessantly to reduce the number of players who can play multiple positions. Maybe you can blame me.

Bottom line is that Plouffe didn't have a rating at 1B. If he had the AI might have done the right thing. The people who make the roster set can't win. If they gave Plouffe a rating at 1B he might end up playing there when Mauer get's injured and that is another can of worms.
