Below is a quote from Ankits himself with regards to how his Career DB was constructed......i beleive it will assist in answering your question......

Quote:
As far as fielding positions, I summed up all games player for each player at each position. Then if a player played less than 10% of his total games at a certain position, the data for that position is deleted and the career average for the remaining position is all this left. So, every player will be rated for all position at which they played at least 10% of the games there and their total data is averaged by the number of seasons played in the majors to get per season data.
as for my experience with it - i have had little to no work on redoing the positions and arms of the players which i have imported into my league. I think it is one fine database and allows us to import players/rookies with little or no editing on our part -

hope this is good enuf for ya ...
