Dagger 0 Posted March 23, 2005 He was hurt last year and played 19 games at 3rd and 39 games at DH. Am I right to assume, he is not eligible at 3rd??? I picked up power hitting 3rd baseman Bill "Boom Boom" Mueller at the end of the draft just in case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I picked up power hitting 3rd baseman Bill "Boom Boom" Mueller at the end of the draft just in case. my ruling on this would be: Since there is no DH position acknowledged in BOSMOSPOF, in my view they cannot count as games towards eligibility. It's as if he never played those games. Based on this, among the BOSMOSPOF-eligible positions Glaus was credited for, while 3B represents fewer than 20 games, it is the most at any position, and thus Glaus is eligible at 3B.

Bill Swerski 0 Posted March 23, 2005 I would have drafted Frank Thomas or Erubiel Durazo in that case. DH doesn't exist and they played at 1B last year, thus, they are 1B. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I could then play Durazo or Thomas at 1B/CI from the start of the season? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
posty 2,296 Posted March 23, 2005 But as it stands right now, Durazo and Frank Thomas are not in the game because they are DH only and we don't have a DH or Util spot to play them... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

torridjoe 0 Posted March 23, 2005 awww, fock. Yeah, you're right. I'm being inconsistent. We've disallowed DH players in the past where 20 games were not played somewhere eligible. Glaus can't play until he gets five games in this year. Sorry for the confusion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dagger 0 Posted March 24, 2005 I figured that to be the case. No worries, a Bill Mueller, Mike Cuddyer platoon will carry me during thos 5 games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
