Any chance you can display Yaz's ratings at 3B over the years? Does he always maintain a ratings to play the position year in and year out, even for years he didn't play there in real life, or does he lose his 3B rating, only to regain it through starting as a red1? In other words, is he relearning the position?
I started 1962, 5 year recalc, development off. defensive rating based on 3 years. I'm not using real transactions, because no matter what I do, I can't get the game to maintain full active rosters. I end up with teams playing 1, 2 or 3 players short on a regular basis. Not sure what I could be doing wrong, but it happens often enough that I just gave up on real transactions. In this game, the Yankee are playing Tony Kubek at 2B with a red rating that is slowly climbing, 25 right now. Bobby Richardson is rated a yellow 50 at 2b, but he's riding the bench. The game does move Kubek to SS, Tresh from SS to LF and subs Richardson in at 2B at the end of most games. The strange thing is Kubek and Richardson are pretty much identical in terms of offensive prowess, so I'm not sure why the game would choose to start a player rated so poorly at 2B, when it has a better defensive option available.
Okay, after 5 games played at 2B, Kubek is a red 25/65. The 25/65 is in deep maroon and then the bar turns bright red very briefly and end in a off green shade. So does this mean he has the potential to turn into a green 65 at 2B? I don't usually even pay attention to ratings, so a lot of this stuff is foreign to me.
Thing is, when setting up a straight historical, one can't run Spring Training as the season starts the day after creations.
