Our positional hierarchy follows common sense and standard practice in MLB. All players can play either 1B or DH. Shortstops can also play 2B and 3B. Second basemen can also play 3B. Catchers can only play at C. All outfielders can play any outfield position. There is a degrading of defense by playing out of position.
