The NFBC will use the following position eligibility rules in :

a) Players who played at least 20 games at any position in the prior year will qualify at that position for the entire NFBC season. Players who play 10 games at a new position in will be eligible at that position after they have played there for the 10th time during the MLB regular season. Any player who missed all of the previous season to injury or retirement will qualify at the position he last was eligible for in the majors (i.e.: Victor Martinez is a catcher based on his 2011 eligibility).

b) If a player did not appear in 20 games at any position, he qualifies at the one position he played most frequently the prior season in the majors. Designated Hitter is considered a position for these purposes (pinch-hitting is not). A player who only qualifies as a DH may only be assigned to the UT position. If a player's most games played at a position is less than 20 and tied among more than one position, the NFBC commissioner will assign eligibility at one position only.

c) Those players who only pinch-hit in the majors in the prior year will be position eligible according to their minor-league games played status in the prior year. They would qualify at the position they played the most games in the minors.

d) Players who played all of the prior year in the minor leagues will be awarded position eligibility for the NFBC season based on the most games played at all levels in the minors. STATS will determine that one eligible position before Draft Day and that will determine that player's status for once he is called up to the majors. Those players who only pinch-hit or DH in the minors will only be UT-eligible.

e) The NFBC commissioner will rule on player eligibility prior to the draft as he deems necessary. Those eligibility lists are final and will be available to all owners prior to Draft Day.
Baseball is a slow, boring, complex, cerebral game that doesn't lend itself to histrionics. You 'take in' a baseball game, something odd to say about a football or basketball game, with the clock running and the bodies flying.

To be a MI, the player must first be fully eligable as a 2B or a SS.

To be a CM, the player must first be fully eligable as a 1B or a 3B.

As soon as he plays in 10 games while playing 2B for at least part of those games.

Gibson said after yesterday's game that he doesn't want to keep shifting Prado all over the diamond - that it is difficult and while Prado would never say anything Gibson knows it and wants to lessen the problem and keep him on the left side of the infield - IF Gregorius shows anything I would bet that going forward Prado will only play 3B and LF
