On Dancer! On Prancer! On Comet! On–Oh, I didn’t hear you come in. Welcome, reader! Grab some egg nog and brandy it up to the fire. The 2012 fantasy baseball rankings are not far away. Right now, January Grey is throwing darts at a board to figure out where to place Matt Joyce. Exciting! In the meantime, let’s look at the players who have multiple position eligibility for this upcoming 2012 fantasy baseball season. This took me far longer than it probably should’ve. Can’t someone write me a program that sorts all the players by games played at a position? Why do I need to go through every player on every roster? It totally harshes my buzz. I did this list of multi-position eligible players because I figured it would help for your 2012 fantasy baseball drafts. I’m a giver, snitches! I only listed players that have multiple position eligibility of ten games or more played outside of their primary position. So this should cover Yahoo, ESPN, CBS, et al (not the Israeli airline). Yes, Christmas came early this year. (Or you actually got a (C)Hanuk(k)ah present this year, if you get your Jew on.) Players with multiple position eligibility are listed once alphabetically under their primary position. On a different post, I’ll make some comments about some of the players. In the mean’s while, you make comments in the comments. Say that fast 117 times! Anyway, here’s all the players with multiple position eligibility for the 2012 fantasy baseball season and the positions they are eligible at:
