    I know I’m a little late on this but I’m going back and sound some of the CAP archetypes to try to gain some extra XP. I am currently working on “The Werth” archetype which has LF as the preferred position but lists every other position as secondary including catcher. My question is if I were to put him at catcher, would he be awful back their dropping pitches and have numerous passed balls each game or would he be somewhat competent?

    I recently put my CAP at 1B (secondary) to complete "putout" stats. Let's just say that he caught SOME of the throws.

    Secondary Positions I believe were glitched real bad and got heavy defensive penalties. I don't think it ever got fixed.

    That was my concern. I wanted to put him at catcher for the putouts but I don’t want to put a Mr. Magoo back there.

    Before you go into a Ranked game, go into your Ballplayer page and activate the archetype that has C as primary(can’t remember which one off the top of my head.) You don’t need to have done anything with that archetype or have any equipment, etc.

    Now enter into a game and when the screen comes up asking you which loadout to use, use the one that you have all complete with your perks/equipment etc. and your Ballplayer will have all your attributes and play catcher as if it were his primary position.

    The only thing is you have to go and activate the primary catcher before every game you play so don’t forget.

    I don’t play online so unfortunately I don’t think that will work for me but I appreciate the help.

    I didn’t think any of the diamond archetypes have Catcher as the primary position. If there is I don’t know of it.

    Set the lineup with the bronze catcher archetype (slick fielding) being activated...

    then back out of the lineup and back to the main DD screen...

    then go up to the top left where your ballplayer is located, and switch the active archetype to the one desired!

    Secondary positions will play much better that way! Also, don't delete the bronze archetype!

    Do what I explained above, but use the bronze "slugger" archetype instead of the "slick fielding" archetype!

    I just went back in and tried this out again, but looks like SDS made some changes since I last done this (near the beginning of the game). Looks like SDS doesn't allow this to work anymore as I see the primary position does change back to the one I reactivated. And of course the secondaries do not show up and we get the massive out-of-position fielding penalties.
