As I'm adding the remaining Hall of Famers into our Strat-O-Matiac league, I'm absolutely flabbergasted by the flexibility of Negro League player Martin Dihigo. This dude is a switch hitter who hits for both average and power, and he's eligible for a staggering seven defensive positions. What's more, his defense rates as a 1 or a 2 (on a scale of 1 to 5, with 1 being the best) in all of those positions except for one, where he's a 3. You can play this guy all over the diamond -- including pitcher. The multifaceted Martin can also take the mound as a starter or as a reliever. And the one thing he can't do? He can't suit up as catcher. Come on, Martin! Give it a shot!
