I have always thought the optimum use of the DP/FLEX would be at catcher. In a tournament, if you have two catchers, and both are relatively the same defensively, but one is a weaker hitter, you start the weaker hitter, bat her at 9, start the better hitter as the FLEX, then throw her in defensively for the 3rd or 4th - this way your starter will be really rested for games 2, 3 and 4, if you keep doing that way. Even if your starter is better defensively, she will still be in there for the 5th, 6th and 7th innings of every game.....rested. on the first day of the tournament, this would give you a better chance of a nice seed for Sunday, and on Sunday, it gives u a much more rested C for the elimination games...
