And when you move a CF to RF, his range will likely drop because corner OF's don't cover as much ground as a CF does. But his overall rating as a RF will be higher than a CF. I often do that with a CF who's a 55 or below. I turn them into corner OF of 65+.

Range is the part of the equation I'm focusing on right now. It's the team type I'm playing around with at the moment. Experimenting and fun and such.
I'm just curious about guys losing range at a young age (don't think it's a scouting issue, it's an actual drop).
I understand being a great pitcher or hitter early on and burning out fast. Happens all the time in real baseball. With outfield range, I just don't see it in reality (barring lower body or even back injuries).
Or maybe it does happen a lot in real life and it's just not something so obvious so it's not talked about?
