Position Change

How do you add an alternate position to a players catalog in a way that creates a position ranking? E.g. Aristides Aquino is listed solely as a RF, but he has been playing CF, and LF. If I plug him in at one of those alternate position does the system create visible data and rankings?

As the player gets more time in those positions he will gain a rating, and the rating will get better the longer they play there (so long as they have the defensive ratings to adequately cover the position).

Alternatively, you can edit the position rating using commissioner mode.

The better fielding ratings (for that position), the more quickly it will accrue.

For instance, if you want them to be a good 3B or RF, make sure they have a good arm.
If you want them to be a good CF, make sure their range is high
If you want them to be a good 1B, make sure they are taller than six feet

Otherwise, the stat will not accrue very fast
