Trade? Well, Stuart is more productive right now so on that basis keep him and trade Clendenon but if I do that Stuart will run out of gas before the farm produces the next generation 1B. Maybe 3B Bob Bailey would be interested in 1B?
My attitude on 1B is don't go looking for one. Don't draft them, don't trade for them, and don't sign them as FAs. Look around the organization. There's usually a couple guys around who can't play another position.

The key is their potential rating at the position. I'm playing Arriba at CF and in 30 games his rating has gone from 1 to 3. The game has his POT there at 8.
I have edited the Global version of my Position Ratings view as follows; it is a godsend for someone who, like me, uses positional flexibility as a core tenet in their strategy.
