In addition to increasing someones defensive range, is anyone open to expanding rewards to learning a new position?
Learning a new position can cost $5M and a player would only be elegible if he has played over 100 games at the desired position. A new position could only be acquired during the offseason and the player would start off with E range and a .930 fielding % for a new IF position and .950 for learning an OF position.
Improving fielding % could also be incorporated as well. Maybe $1M for a 10 point increase and a .990 fielding percentage improvement cap?
Thoughts?

I've taught many players different spots in the minors as they develop. Sometimes it works, sometimes they don't adjust. Also can be done in Spring training using the points they allot for different things. So to answer your question, no I don't think it should cost to teach players a new position. |

I pretty much agree with this. Although, if you want to spend $5 mil to do it when there are free ways to do it in the game, I'm not sure I'd have a problem with that. |

how does spring training work? you get points to give out for each player on areas to focus. if you allocate more points on one area (eg learning a new position), they will improve in that area, but they will regress in the area you took points away from. |
