no BUO today

the tool and player card disagree about what he throws and figuring out what to say from that mess of a picture is annoyingly difficult.

Question was what players have played 100 games at 3B, and then played 100 games at 2B the next year?

I guessed Mark DeRosa and Akinori Iwamura, but I never saw the answer.

So they got tricky with 1 player not being active. I just looked up DeRosa and it appears he has never even played 100 games at ANY position in ANY season.
