I know matty would like to open up position versatility to all players, not just the young ones, we'd have to look into that.
From some initial looks it appears the pitching idea is probably out, there is too much of an effect on overall.
For hitters here is an example we can use. This is a player who is currently unpeaked with vitals 93-85-74 on defense. Primarily a RF. On his player card his vitals look like this:
LF - 65-67-68
CF - 61-82-80
RF - 93-89-74
First, that's just stupid. How do you have a 93 arm in RF but a 65 in LF?
With a couple tweaks I can make it this:
LF - 90-86-71
CF - 84-84-75
RF - 93-85-74
There is a one point bump in overall, but it won't change the way the game calculates anything. That player now looks like a real life outfielder rather than the absurd way mogul has it. It also took me about a minute to do the adjustment.
Yeah that looks extremely solid there. I'm definitely not against older players becoming more versatile it just depends if the rest want it. I like the idea we have there. As you said, the one point bump won't effect much either. Even then there may even be times where there isn't an overall bump which definitely works. I say we run with it honestly.
