Defense rating minimums to learn new positions?

goldfinger77 · 07-07-2015, 06:54 PM

Hello! I am a big fan of cross-training my hitters in the minors to learn as many positions as possible before they get to the majors. What I'm looking for is the minimum rating required to learn a position. Example: minimum arm to learn 3B, minimum double play to learn 2B, etc.

Is this information available?

I believe this is still current:

Please note that's on a 1-200 scale. I think the only thing that's changed is that 1B height affects the rating but any player should still get a minimum of 1 rating if they play there enough.

EDIT: Reading an old thread from the OOTP 14 era, SS minimum range is now 80 and the 3B minimum arm is now 80. I don't know if things have changed much since then but probably not.
