    While I can't speak for Brian, I'm sure he would also love to be in either the Adams or Signorino division this year.

    And every year.

      It just means that when I do finally win the division, it will be that much sweeter. Baseball is all about patience...

    Also, my rookie 3B Ruben Noya pitched 1 1/3 inning of mop-up duty in a game this sim. Has a position player pitched ever before now? I've seen pitchers used as fielders in the past, but never vice versa.

    I'll check the database when I run the next sim and let you know...

    Michael,

    In answer to your question, the only other instance of a position player pitching in league history at the major league level occured in 2023 when RF Bruno Carmona pitched 1/3 of an inning in 2023 for Ohio.
