    Has there ever been precedent to change a players position mid-season??

    If anyone's got MLB 20 booted up, check to see what Vlad Jr. was last year? If I recall, he was a 3B, which prior to last season was his primary position and he never played 3B last year ... just curious.

    Yes, if they are for the most part playing one position, SDS usually will go out and change it

    Just make him 2B and adjust his ratings accordingly so he is still a 83-84.

    Well, just checked the MLB20 Marketplace and sure enough, Vlad is 3B. So maybe "usually", but clearly they didn't last year with Vlad, even though he played exactly 0 games at 3B.

    No

    Just because you want him to go 💎 so your investment pays off doesn't mean he should be a diamond.

    Probably an exception, they also did things weirdly since it was a 60 game season.

    Ketel Marte, last season 41 GP at 2B, 3 GP at CF ... is a CF in MLB20. Was not fixed mid-season.

    @savagesteve74 said in Roster Update tomorrow: Please make Marcus Semien a 2B:

    Kris Bryant has 122 innings at 3B this year and 104 in LF.

    Marcus Semien has 451 innings at 2B and 43 at SS.

    That's not a good comparison.

    So you want to go by innings then, Bryant is RF then with 127 innings there.

    So you want to go by innings then, Bryant is RF then with 127 innings there.

    So basically it's about even between the 3 positions for him. Or 34-32-35, whatever it is. In that case it makes sense to use previous years. When its 92-8, the one with 92% of his innings is clearly and decisively his primary position.

    And then when he’s moved back to SS because of an injury, trade, or just because, then what? He’s played over 90% of his career as a SS, just because he’s started at a different position for a couple months doesn’t negate the career he’s built at a specific position. Where’s he starting today?

    When Joe Mauer played 1B at the end of his career, his DD card was a first baseman even though he was a catcher for a majority of his career

    Yeah I don’t get this argument. Semien is the starting 2B for the blue jays in 2021. Just like Muncy is a 1B. Bryant seems a bit more complicated as the split is pretty even, and in a case like that using history makes sense.

    Frankly, their roster updates are woefully inadequate. There are so many guys in the wrong positions. The only guys they seem to switch positions are pitchers (many times wrongly). The CPU lineups and bullpen choices are atrocious.

    Had a good Month of May. April wasnt so hot and June, albeit 7 games, not so much either. How bout we let him prove something first. One hot Month makes you a one hot Month diamond card, POTM, not a LS diamond.

    He was good with Oakland in his last full season though. So i could see him getting diamond if he keeps this pace.

    This has not been the case, Yelich was RF in game all year last year, but only played LF. Others have already mentioned Bryant this year. Similar thing with Bellinger last year as RF in game, but played CF irl with mookie in right. I could find many more...
