A Rules Clarification…
Following some questions, we’ve changed the language in the Constitution to reflect the idea that:
A player is eligible at all positions he played 15 or more games at in the major leagues. If the only position he played 15 or more games was DH, he’s DH/Util eligible only for the draft.
If a player didn’t appear at any major league position at least 15 or more times, he’s then eligible at the single position other than DH he played most at all levels he played the year before combined, unless he didn’t play 15 or more games at any other fielding position. In which case he’ll be DH/Util eligible only for the draft.
The Roster Changes…
With one week until the draft, Joe Sheehan withdrew from this year’s Tout Wars AL, setting in motion a series of changes.
1) Chris Liss moves from the NL to the AL.
2) Derek Carty moves from the Mixed to the NL.
3) Zach Steinhorn, of mlb.com and mastersball.com, joins the Mixed league.
