Why is it that if you play someone at a new position, they gain experience points at a quick rate, sometimes becoming decent to good at that position during spring training? But there seems to be no way to improve a player at any rate, at his current position? I can take an average 3B and make him a pretty good 1B, but I can not take my meh 1B and make him better. To me, the Labs don't count (correct me if I am wrong). I can not choose what specific position I can assign to a player to improve upon.
