Re: Behind the Scenes "Playing Out of Position" Changes

I like the new idea.

I personally have always thought you guys should have sliders for each secondary positions in the editor for players.

EXAMPLE: Lets say a player plays 1B as primary, but LF/RF are secondary positions it will look like this in the editor with sliders

C - 0
1B - 99
2B - 0
3B - 0
SS - 0
LF - 77
CF - 5
RF - 80

A utility guy that plays all 4 infield spots and can play CF

C - 0
1B - 55
2B - 75
3B -70
SS -82
LF - 15
CF - 75
RF - 10

These are just a few examples of what I'm trying to explain. Anything over 50% should show up as secondary positions on the player card. This actually helps when guys switch positions or try out new positions in real life. It allows us to adjust without having to change primary and secondary positions to make it work.

A guy like Howie Kendrick has become somewhat of a utility guy.

He can play 1B/2B/3B/LF

1B - 60
2B - 90
3B - 77
SS - 10
LF - 70
CF - 0
RF - 10
