smg58 Old-Timey Member Posted August 13, 2017 Posted August 13, 2017 A player to be named later might mean somebody on the 40 who didn't clear waivers. That would actually be an improvement.

Guest Mets Willets Point Guests Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 They can be taken out of the game if you need, say a better lefty/righty matchup, but then subbed back in with a different face.
