Player skills (like hitting) train slower when not at the recommended level. I believe learning a position is separate. I would expect it to train at normal (minor league) speed. I could be wrong about this tho. It could be slower too. But it won't be zero. Edit: I should add that if your player has little previous training at the position, sending him down for that reason probably isn't going to be effective. It takes a long time to learn a position in the minors. My guy has a season & a half of minor league catching under his belt already. If you are starting from scratch, may be better to bite the bullet and eat the errors in the majors. Updated Monday, March 2 2015 @ 11:47:53 am PST
