Why so many high 1B position ratings?
 

Seems like among the position ratings a lot of players are better at 1B than the other positions they play. There are more higher ratings at 1B then any other position.

Because 1B is the easiest position to play.

yeah, what he said
 

If you can play any of the IF positions, you can play 1B even better with the same fielding ratings if you have the experience at 1B. Even an avg 2B 3B or SS can be a very good 1B.
