    It's not always about the numbers...those out of position guys are gonna get hit with a bad animation causing an error that even a common playing in the correct position wouldn't get.

    ^ this, definitely will see a lot of late jump animations on fly balls

    You can always put Chipper in Left, Wander at 3rd, and Jimmy at Short...then move whoever you've got in left to Right. If you're adamant on keeping that lineup

    Already have J-Ram playing LF. It's the only place I can put him other then in the INF which is already committed to other players I need to use just as much & as badly.

    His 96 Speed makes up easily for that late jump. Again I have NOT had any misplays or errors with him yet. Even when that RED Flashing Caution Circle.

    You’re playing players out of position because your insistent on using switch hitters. There is a reason J-Roll is not an outfielder. He will cause you problems at some point and time most likely in a key moment in the game and you’ll wish you had Mookie out there. Then the next thing out of your mouth will be how RNG cost you a game when it wasn’t RNG, it was J-Roll being played out of position. But hey you’re obviously a better player than me.

    P.S. Mookie is a better hitter against both righty’s and leftie’s than J-Roll and is a otherworldly better outfielder than J-Roll.

    1 of J-Ram's secondary positions is LF, therefore he has NO "Out Of Position" Penalty. In regards to J-Roll in RF. Again I have NOT had any problems & issues with that. Also if & when I do (if ever), then so be it. It will be a rare random thing. I Have made more Errors & Misplays with Mantle in CF which is his Primary Position & as well him having his decent defensive stats & high speed. So anything can happen at any given time. But i do feel J-Roll having Rea, Fld, Arm, Acc all within mid 90's debuffs error chances even though he is "Out Of Position"

    I just think too many play too much into the "what if's" & "what might's" to explore the possibility of using someone "Out Of Position" even though that players defense stats are within the mid to high 90's.

    I don't think there are really any players that are good enough hitting and in the field to warrant playing them out of position, when there's so many amazing options at every position. No need to play somebody out of position when you can find plenty of players just as good who wouldn't be out of position.

    If you like using J-roll more power to you. Personally I wouldn't even use him in his primary position cause his hitting stats are garbage

    If SDS would re-release 99 Signature Carlos Betran, then I would NOT have this issue with needing to use J-Roll in RF. But after the Houston WS Cheat scandal with Betran being involved, SDS will NOT be re-releasing his card out. LMAO

    You’re right. I’d recommend using a guy out of position at 1B too. Defense doesn’t matter there, so you can put in whoever you want. It’ll work out great, trust me.

    Do you have the postseason Tommy Edman? He's a switch hitter with better hitting attributes than J-Roll and has RF as a secondary. I'd recommend him if you're insistent on using switch hitters

    HA HA HA ... I really enjoyed that sarcasm. Anywhere within the INF & as well at C you need someone that is in their primary position or if in secondary, that their defense stats makes up for the secondary penalty. They handles the ball so much more times within the game then outfielders do. If my Right Fielders (regardless of who is used) sees 2-4 plays within a game, then that's a lot. Sometimes a games go by when RF saw no action at all which happens more then games he sees action more then 4 times in a single game.

    yes I do & I just do NOT hit at all with him. some cards are like that with NOT playing well for me regardless how well their attributes are. Same issues others have with certain cards.

    He won’t do it because he is one of those people that believes that if they are not a switch hitter they are not worth playing even after I suggested the correct player who’s primary position is right field who hits better versus righty and lefties but is a right handed batter. So there is no point in pointing out the error of his ways. The switch hitting attribute is obviously more important than anything else.

    I have a major big time flaw & weakness with chasing Sliders, Cutters, Sweeping Curves & Slurves tailing away from the strike zone when its a Righty/Righty or Lefty/Lefty match up. Therefore using Switch Hitters 1 to 8 takes away that weapon from opposing Pitchers. Using those pitches on me are limited with being slight off & not way off because they risk hitting me, which some have & gives me a free pass to 1st base. I can get better pitches to read & pick up on. That is why I insist on using an entire switch hitting Line-Up. That philosophy & strategy works best for me.

    Ok so you’re admitting that you have the inability to read pitches. That’s fine!!! A good player will still find your weakness and exploit it.
