Athough fantasy, these teams are bound by real possibility...or the mode wouldn't work.
Guys who aren't trained up at a position do often play it well enough anyway esp. if they have good outfielder or infielder ratings...just not at an elite level.

The key word is sometimes though mate, I'm not sure that that many have as much reserve talent as you think, especially the FTP players.
I've put money in the game and do have a lot of cards, but my Tournament open team is significantly weaker than my normal team.
If you have a lot of top cards huge advantage, but I guess that is the point and it is why at some stage training will be abolished.
Just a sidenote. We are still relying on, to an extent, a certain view of what a players stats should look like. Ill just go back to my earlier point. Does anyone really believe that top modern pitchers would really be this awful in comparison to the pitchers of other eras?
