Remember, only half the kids can be above average.

The "average" referred to originally is arithmatic mean. The "average" referred to in the saying is really arithmatic median.

To the OP and my post - insert him in the 12 slot and play on. This is legal by U-trip rules and CBO.
On the average thing...if most of the kids are above "average" then the average is "better than 'average'" Steve, you don't notice the MLB scouts at those 11 yo games? Man they're all over the place at my games. Of course, the kids know them all personally. They call them by name, Mom, Dad, Pawpaw... |

Explain please. If there is average then half are above and half below, unless we are considering the head of pin for the ONE.

91. 91% (10 out of 11) of the values are above average. You are confusing average (mean) with median.

99.99% of people have more than the average number of arms. (No disrespect intented to anyone who has fewer than the averag or more than the median number of arms.)

Whenever a league adopts CBO make certain you check THEIR local league rules especially if a player gets EJ'd. sick etc because in some leagues that use CBO if a player gets EJ'd or injured it's an automatic out when that spot in the order is due up. In some "other" league they might simply skip that batter's position in the line-up. Pete Booth
