Title: Position Eligibility
Post by: MillerTime on July 28, 2011, 02:41:01 PM

Just curious, what does it take for a SP that has been moved to the bullpen to become a RP in this league?  Anthony Bass is my case, 1 SP and 5 RP appearances.  Just want to see when I will be able to use him as RP. 

Thanks

Here is what we have on the Fantrax site:

Quote

Position Eligibility
Games needed from previous season for a player to qualify at a hitting position : 25
Games needed from current season for a player to qualify at a hitting position: 25
Starts needed from previous season for a player to qualify as a starter : 4
Starts needed from current season for a player to qualify as a starter : 4
Relief appearances needed from previous season for a player to qualify as a reliever : 12
Relief appearances needed from current season for a player to qualify as a reliever: 12
Use Fantrax's default position(s) even if player qualifies for at least one position based on above criteria: No
Note: If a player does not qualify for any positions based on the above selections, he will qualify at the position(s) played most in the previous season. If he did not play at all last season, then the default position(s) will be used.

Position elegibility under FGM Rules - Position Elegibility it is 20 IP.  Maybe one of them needs to be changed but we don't go by the Fantrax rules.

Position Eligibility
A minor league player called up from the EDR will immediately have their eligibility analyzed.  All players eligible for multiple positions will be analyzed in the offseason.  The rule is 25 GP and 20 IP (half of the eligibility for the MLB clock on prospect contracts) for the past and current season.  Players are always eligible for at least one position.  If they were eligible for multiple positions and then became ineligible for such positions, positions will be removed in order of when they first became eligible for such positions in the first place.

As the GM, if you see that a player of yours has become eligible for another position (C-CI-MI-OF-SP-RP) during the season then please post this in the Transactions board!

Correct Paul.  Eligibility is handled by manual changes and the rules on ProFSL are the gospel truth.  How can one show that a player pitched 20 innings of relief?  GAME LOGS!

Copy and paste the game logs to show that the player had their 20 IP in relief this year.  Please post links as well.
