You need a big bat there to add value relative to the average first basemen in the league.
The fact that the game allows training just gives players more freedom to do really, really stupid things like playing a glove-first player at first base. What's not to love about that?

For a player to learn he needs time, and time ages that player. Do you also want PT cards to age then? If a card is based on a historical season and never changes otherwise, why should it be able to change defensively?
What's not to love? Teams with nothing but all trained SSs in the IF and all trained CFers in the OF sucking the life out of offense across the league.
Training is something you should be able to do in the single player game only with the players aging.
Tournaments have it right.
