MJ16. All players must be allowed to play all positions. No manager should always, or even often, play his “best” players at “key” positions. Specifically, any player who plays infield one inning MUST play outfield the following inning, except as further described below. This requirement carries over from game to game. Any violation of this rule should be immediately brought to the attention of the player agent. If there are less than 12 players, the manager may play a player in the infield for consecutive innings subject to the following conditions: (i) any infielder who plays infield in consecutive innings must play different positions, (ii) no player can play infield for more than two consecutive innings, and (iii) no player who has played infield in consecutive innings one time can play infield in consecutive innings a second time until all of such team’s players have played consecutive innings in that game.
