My online league is about to make the switch from 6.5 to OOTP9, and I have some questions about how defense imports. I'm one of those who teaches hitters in the minors every position they can possibly learn (I love that about 6.5), and I'm wondering if anyone has looked at how players' defense imports to OOTP9.
- Does a player's designated position affect how his defense imports? If I have a player who has a range of 92 and a .995 FP at 2B and a range of 84 and a .952 FP at SS, will his defense be different if he's designated as a 2B vs. a SS when we import?
- Similarly, will a player's defense be better in the infield than the outfield if he's imported while designated as a middle infielder rather than an OF? For example, I have a player who has a range of 72 and a .992 FP in RF and a range of 45 and a .990 at 2B. Does it matter if I designate him as a 2B or a RF when the switch happens?
Any information/advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
