When you win the bid on a player with multiple position eligibility do you have to state where you are going to play him at the time you win the bid or can you move him where needed at the end of the draft?

As soon as you win a player you have to tell the facililililitator where he is going on your roster. Even if it's a 1B player you have to specify 1B, 1b/3b, or DH (util.). This is how other bidders will know exactly which spots you need to fill or are already done with.

Good question, Leaderboard. With the usage of stickers, it will be somewhat difficult to move players around. That said, I don't see any reason why we shouldn't be allowed to--just peel off the sticker and put it in an open slot!

Greg, once you've drafted Phil Nevin and tell the facililililitator that you want him at 1B, can you then, later DURING the auction, move him to OF or DH? Or do you have to wait to move him once the auction has ended?

You can move players who qualify at multiple positions anytime during the auction, even right up to the last pick. We will put the sticky on the board under the position you requested, but if we have to make changes later we'll be able to do that. No problem there at all.
