Just want to air out frustration on outfielders losing range at really young ages without any major injuries.

I scour my league for decent OF with 75+ range (20-80), just because it's something I'm having fun with right now, but in doing so I've discovered these guys drop their range at ridiculously young ages. I see guys on other teams reach their late 30s with 75 OF range but whenever I try to grow a guy like that on my team he loses his range at age 24.

I've had four guys who started off as range 75 guys, and by the time they turned 24-25, their range was lower, in 2 cases very noticeably to 60 and 55.

The two worst cases are guys whom I shifted from CF to RF. Does that have an effect?
