STATS’ Dean Peterson’s first monthly look at which teams are using all their talent, and which have some in reserve…
The Second Scoop
Why is that guy on the bench?
The rules in Tout Wars allow each team to have up to four players on their bench. These players can be major or minor leaguers who can be interchanged with active players each week, but do not include disabled players.
Naturally, one of the keys to success rests with teams that have viable options on their bench. Since only American league players are used, and few free agent players are available the bench is counted on to replace wounded players.
