So the position eligibility on this list does not match the draft software we're currently using for slow drafts (Ackley is only OF). Does this mean that we can use Ackley at 2B for the slow drafts? Thanks, Greg.

Thanks, Greg. I didn't realize he was OF in the draft software. We'll keep him there and I will update this list. Let me look into his minor-league games played last year first and make a call here. My bad for jumping the gun on him.

Here is the list alphabetically by last name:



Ackley, Dustin

Andino, Robert

Arias, Joaquin

Aviles, Mike

Baker, Jeff

Thanks, Greg. Okay, Ackley is definitely going to be 2B-eligible only to start the NFBC season. His games played in the minors last year were: 121 games at 2B, 12 at DH, none in OF. Folks who drafted him at OF will be happy to know that he is now 2B eligible and I apologize for having that wrong in the draft software.

Jason Kipnis, CLE?
