The few players this applies to doesn't seem to warrant this kind of response. You know the player's weaknesses when you draft them. Taking advantage of a glitch isn't acceptable.
I guess I'm lost on how they are not good examples. Both Hamilton and Upton started out as middle infielders and were moved to the outfield. Something Mogul doesn't allow.
Merrifield rates as a positive range defender at 2B. Peraza as league average range at SS. Segura is below average, but barely. In FCM terms, Segura would have 90 range when the league average is around 91-92. That's still highly playable at those positions with speed, where as 80 range in FCM is horrible at SS and would rate far in the negative.
