I figured the historical cards would rate them at their positions and be fixed, since its representative of the player...I mean if they jumped around a bit to have those positions & their ratings...
And maybe the live cards could project.
On the other hand, I know that decision has to be made on how to deal with putting a player at a position other than one he has already played, (esp. with lives or players that are still active...), & that they gradually get better is a decent way of doing it.
I'm critiquing more than complaining...all the historical players have their info on where they played most of their games and the minority of their games and how they fared (to some degree).
Live cards are different. Tricky. Escpecially with trying a bat at a new position to get them in the lineup being a current trend. And I guess some PT managers enjoy training so that they can make their team flexible that way. It's just te 1st time I did it I moved Historical Dykstra from Center to Right knowing he could play right.
And then I saw historical INFIELDERS all over the diamond (besides catcher)(s).
Any time a guy is learning a new Infield position it's a transition, often a failed or at least crummy one where they play no-good defense but can at least hit.
Practice in OF is pretty simple where a player can improve with practice.
You know, there is a lot going on at SS and 2B as far as coordinating DPs and relay throws...3B is the hot corner and the player needs that ability to quickly lunge to the left or the right (also DP & strong arm across INF).
1B uses an entirely different glove, has to scoop throws, sometimes be a nice big target for the other infielders, and if he's really good, be great at turning a DP as well.
