Reply to "Shortstop defensive positioning"

So basically he's at DP position but near/on the grass. The SS from last year would line up deep on/near the grass to make up for his range. I had talks with him and explained that he doesn't have the arm (70mph) to play that deep. On other plays he'd be in on the grass but right in the middle between SS and 3B. He was a stubborn one to reposition every play, so I ended up moving him to 2B where he didn't make a single error all year and moved my best catcher to SS, his natural position.
