One thing that might be useful info for you regarding Price: Last I remember if you play a prospect out of position, his fielding development will be affected by where he plays in games, not what you have him listed as. For example, if you played him at 2b, his fielding and glove would see more improvement than his arm and accuracy. So if you play him at 3b, don't expect him to develop into a SS.

Can anyone out there confirm or squash this? I stopped playing for awhile and this is something I remember from way back. Maybe it was a theory that got busted.

I've seen nothing to indicate that fielding development is affected by position played.   As I said long ago, a system that does that would encourage playing 1B/DH at SS in the minors to fully develop a player.   It would make no sense to design a game that way.
