When my son build his team, he did not always pay attention to his training.

He placed players into new roles without checking to see if they would be better in other roles. In other words, we try to place players into positions where they can make the most of their Defensive rating skills (Range, Error, Arm, Double Play):

3B - focus on Infield Arm
2B - focus on Infield Error and Infield Range, and Double Play
SS - focus on Infield Range and Double Play.
1B - focus on Height.

So based on that, it would have been better to move Travis Jackson to 3B (103 Arm) instead of 2B (78 Error).
At the same time, Johnny Pesky would have been better at 2B (92 Error) instead of 3B (96 Arm).

With the points collected from the playoffs and championship, Joe Cronin was acquired. He fits perfectly at SS with his 103 Infield Arm and 103 Double Play.

This move freed up Francisco Lindor to become the Infield Utility player
and Larry Bowa was moved to the Reserves.

Other adjustments before the start of the new season:

+1B - Keston Hiura
- Cecil Travis

+ CF DomDimaggio (new CF backup)
- LF Pete Rose
