I think this could be fixed with secondary positions in place from the start. And have some sort of system of mixing it up. Playing a secondary spot when substituted in the game, or giving someone else a rest. Heck, a RTTS player never plays DH. Oh well. I’ll see what happens when I get to talk to my agent and follow up here.

I don’t think position changing is well thought out. I have a center fielder for the Twins. The team tells me that they are already set at center field. Fine, I get it. I mean it’s dumb because my player is 11 years younger than Buxton. Are you saying you don’t plan for the future? Anyway, I have only two choices. I can tell them no, I’m a center fielder. Trade me. Or I can say sure, I’ll play left field. Well, the second option seems like it isn’t terrible. Except it is. I am then reassigned to left fielder with a secondary position of starting pitcher. What? How did that happen? I don’t want to get traded. And I don’t mind playing left field, but is there any way it’s not permanent?

This really under scores an issue with outfield, and really all secondary positions. Namely they don’t exist in RTTS. Why is that? Outfielders play multiple outfield positions all the time. This whole thing wouldn’t be an issue if we could somehow establish secondary positions, and then use them.
