Biggio?
On Mock Draft Central Biggio was listed as an outfielder and a second baseman. I didn't think he qualified in the outfield, but my partner convinced me that Mock Draft Central wouldn't have him listed as an outfielder unless he qualified as an outfielder. I drafted him as my 5th outfielder. Had I known for a fact that he didn't qualify in the outfield I would not have picked him. I'm not blaming anyone as I accept all fault, but to make it perfectly clear in the future you should see if Mock Draft Central can update the players positions accordingly for the NFBC drafts. I have someone from Hyogo Prefecture, Japan as my 5th outfielder. Maybe it's a blessing in disguise.

MDC is a nice drafting tool for our NFBC Satellite and Mid-Season Leagues, but their position eligibility lists don't always correlate to our contest and we've told people that before. In the Biggio case, it's obviously a mistake they've had on their site all year long as he didn't play at all in the outfield in 2005. One of the reasons Tom and I monitor all of these drafts is for questions you guys may have during the draft (and to enjoy the banter on the Chat section!). Feel free to ask us about player eligibilities during the draft if needed.
The Biggio listing was wrong on MDC. The good news is that the first FAAB period is this Sunday and there are plenty of good outfielders still out there!!
