Anthony Rendon - third base four games. ETA - six games after Zimmerman's next throw across the infield.

Regarding Solarte there is a question for Greg and STATS - while they have a much more realistic designation of him as 2B - the position he played most in the minors in 2013 he also played 20 games and SS and 20 games at 3B so why shouldn't he have started with a designation of 2B/SS/MI/3B/CI/U?

But at least you are way ahead of cbs who listed him as an OF where he only played six games last season.

Just because a player plays multiple positions in the minors Perry that doesn't give him dual eligibility in the majors. Never has. We designate the position eligibility at the beginning of the season for each player using most games played in the minors. He had 88 games played at 2B in 2013, so this was an easy call. But just because he had 20 games at third base doesn't mean he is dual position eligible in the majors for 2014, not in the NFBC or any other league I'm aware of.

Schoop 6 games at 3B was added to the list.

Any other guys nearing multi eligible status you want me to trade here?

Nice list. I suggest removing V-mart from the catching watch until he is around five or so else it will be like watching paint dry.

Just a suggestion.

Francisco Cervelli at 1B...but I would treat him like VMart at C, only in reverse.
After the other night's game, I'm not sure he's going to be back out there again anytime soon.

The guys on the CBS podcast say Brad Ausmus plans to use VMart at catcher more - they expect him to play at least 5 games there by May 1. I'm keeping him on the list since after most of the other guys get their eligibility the list will be much shorter and should include anyone who is threatening to hit 10GP.

Nice for his owners. Didn't work out, but I would have loved to have him on my teams, especially the Main where I have the tantalizing due of Yunel Escobar and Zack Cozart competing for AB.

Not to nitpick but Solarte is 2B/3B, not OF/3B.

Martinez owners will be glad to see him at 1b for the 6th time this year...not sure if he gets it by May 5th...but May 12th could be real reasonable
