Official Thread for Position Eligibility Questions

Per this thread and the text on the actual lineups page, it does not matter.

Pitchers and SP/RP eligibility

The example to start the season is Lance Lynn. An owner in my league is wondering if he/she simply has to forego 5 starts worth of Lynn points because Lynn is currently only RP eligible, and thus cannot accrue points if he starts games. I sympathize with him on this complaint. What’s the verdict? Lynn likely isn’t the only example.

The text on the lineup page that is above the pitchers section for every team:

All pitchers can be placed in either SP or RP, regardless of eligibility.
