This rule would seem to say that VMart qualifies at whatever position he appeared most in 2012. However, he was out all of 2012, and never played a game. I assume that the spirit of this rule would call for us to look at 2011, and I assume in 2011 he qualified at catcher (can someone confirm?). If so, I am happy to re-set his position, I just did not want to do so unilaterally and without checking the rules.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
