Keith, Langford, Merrill and how we will treat them

[geoflin]

This year we have at least 3 minor leaguers who were ineligible for the major league auctions but are beginning the season on major league rosters. I believe they are all owned in the minor leagues in every appropriate league. For the sake of clarity and to eliminate any confusion we have discussed and agreed upon the following:

Colt Keith is immediately eligible at both 2B and 3B if his owner wishes to activate him.

Wyatt Langford is immediately eligible at OF.

Jackson Merrill is immediately eligible at SS and will gain eligibility at OF after 5 appearances there.

I'm not aware of any other similar players, if there are any please post their names below.

The rules committee will discuss and rewrite this rule during the year so it is clear to everyone.

the only thing i would add is that all players mentioned above are eligible at dh.

in the case of Keith he is also eligible at ci and mi
