Apply Position Experience to Other Positions

It seems contrary to real life that an outfielder with full experience in right field, for example, starts out incompetent in left field with zero experience until he plays there for many games.

One way to fix this would be to apply a lesser amount of experience points to similar positions for every point applied to the actual position played.

For example, if a guys plays 900 innings in right field and gets 100 RF experience points for it he should also get 75 LF experience points and 25 CF experience points. Maybe not that exact ratio but that's the idea.

If a guy plays 900 innings at shortstop and gets 100 SS experience points then he also gets 80 2B and 50 3B experience points.

Something like that. As of now the positions are completely separate when it comes to experience.
