Hi, Guys:

Can't wait to get back into the NFBC in Vegas after a three-year absence. I have a question regarding the position eligibility for Josh Harrison. In 2014 he played 72 games at 3B, 52 in the OF, 17 at 2B and 8 at SS. Obviously he qualifies at 3B and OF, and not 2B or SS, but my question is: Does he qualify at MIF due to the fact that he played 25 games at middle infield?

Can't wait to see everyone in Vegas ..........

No, he does not. To be a middle infielder, Harrison would have to qualify at 2B or SS.

MI isn't a position, it is a slot in which 2b's and SS's can be placed.

Dan is right - just want to add that I play in a league where Harrison would be eligible at MI (and so does Greg ). It's a neat little twist that rarely comes into play but I make a note of the candidates figuring if I have one, there may be some that don't realize I can slide him into a CI or MI spot and they may make incorrect assumptions of what I need at the auction.
