1. All positional players MUST be a 3 or worse fielding.
2. The DH MUST have a position where he's at least a 3 defensively.
3. HAL usually doesn't move your DH...BUT, in the event of an injury and your DH is moved to a position where he's BETTER than a 3, he must be the DH for the next series. (for multi-position DH's).
4. If a multi-position player, ie. Randy Winn (2 in LF / 3 in CF), is switched by HAL during the course of a game to LF because of injury, he MUST be used in CF for the next series and you MUST use another LF with a 3 or worse rating.
for example:
Gomes in LF and Winn in CF. Gomes goes down for 15 and HAL pulls a double switch. He brings in a CF with a 3 rating and moves Winn to LF. Since nothing can be done, managerial wise, in a 3 game series, WINN MUST be in CF the next night and a new LF with a 3 or worse rating must take over for Gomes.
-This is straight from Frank's mouth. Just got off the phone with him.
