Pitchers don't automatically develop as hitters. I have no idea why, but this has always been an OOTP thing.

Unfortunately I've never seen it happen in OOTP. The only 2 ways you'll ever see it is if you do it yourself or if you play historical and you see Babe Ruth and others convert. At least OOTP handles historicals correctly in that manner. |

This interests me, too. In my 1962 historical I have a 38 year old first baseman with an 88 mph fastball…. |

Nice, I had no clue there was anything like a points system....do you know ABOUT how many points it takes to learn the position? Does it go by the defensive spectrum?Do the points reset if you haven't played them at that position in a long time? Last edited by oman19; 08-11-2009 at 02:36 PM. |

I have not observed experience dropping after not playing a position for a long time, but that's mostly because I play v-e-r-y s-l-o-w-l-y. Based on things I have deduced, which may not be correct, it takes about three years for a player to lose all his experience at a position. Note that there is a very gamey aspect to the experience system, at least through Version 9. If you play even one inning (or one out) at a position, you get the point (or three points). This means that, for example, if you play a guy one inning each at every position during a spring training game, he'll rack up three experience at every position. I really, really wish Markus would go to a one-point-per-twenty-seven-outs system instead, but he may think that's unfair to players who are primarily defensive substitutes. |

Making the experience system out of 1000 instead of 200 might be a partial answer to that.
