Minor league games played: 1B-31 OF-69 DH-2 [/QUOTE]Wow, good catch. Yes, he would be OF-only eligible. I didn't realize he played only in the OF and honestly didn't look close enough. My bad. I've adjusted the list above. Good catch.

Thanks -- I'll let you know if I find anymore. Overall, excellent job and thanks for getting us these lists earlier than any prior year.

Greg, don't forget to put Huber on the OF list!
