from the rules:



"Designated Hitter is considered a position for these purposes (pinch-hitting is not)."



d) Players who played all of 2009 in the minor leagues will be awarded position eligibility for the 2010 NFBC season based on the most games played at all levels in the minors. Fanball will determine that one eligible position before Draft Day and that will determine that player’s status for 2010 once he is called up to the majors. Those players who only pinch-hit or DH in the minors only will be UT-eligible.

How about Dan Johnson of the Rays? Played in Japan last year...

How about Dan Johnson of the Rays? Played in Japan last year... then it would be most games played the year before. I'm on the road now and don't have a book in front of me, but check out his 2008 games played and that will give you the answer. I'll update here if needed.

This page lists Kendry Morales as DH/UT rather than 1B: http://nfbc.fanball.com/resources/2010- ... y-list.php
