Now it is only the rookie year that is available, a huge step backwards as far as I am concerned. Again not only is the positions available based on the rookie season, but it does not rate a player at all the positions he played as a rookie. In another thread I pointed out that the game imported Willie McCovey as a LF only. He actually played 79(?) games in LF, 26 games at 1B, and 5 games in RF. The game does not rate him at 1B or RF. I could amost understand no RF rating, but why no 1B rating?
I´m shocked....
I assumed that each year new calcs are imported BOTH offensive and defensive. Since I understood this was the way with pitchers.
This scares me that the position the player FIRST got imported with should stay OR be changed on the AI's own will.
I hoped that this creating a dynasty with historical players really IS historical in the fact dealing with stats on offense AND defense.
