Finders Keepers Keeper League

I have a question about the prospect draft.

The rules state that the players eligible are any that didn't recieve a card from SOM.

In all the other leagues I've played in, a prospect cannot have had any MLB experience prior to this current season. So someone like Chris Carpenter wouldn't be eligible for the prospect draft, whereas someone like Matt Weiters would be eligible.

Is this league like all the others, or is anyone eligible even though they may not be a "prospect" at all?

No, anyone without a card, is eligible, including Carpenter, Soriano, etc. They must however be owned by a MLB team at the beginning of the prospect draft. So no taking Stephen Strausberg If he signs a contract half way through the prospect draft. If he signs before we start, then he is fair game.

Another thing about the prospect draft, is that you lose someone unless they get a Strat card within 2 years. We are drafting late in the year. Unless someone gets a Strat card for the 2010 season, you will lose them. Keep that in mind when drafting.

Also, let us confirm the divisions

EAST
litangel
tcochran
thisisray
Kaviksdad

CENTRAL
Roscodog
Pirhala
ironwill1
RiojaDave

WEST
Rant
Terry101
zim13

[quote:e67dceebfc="Pirhala"]On another topic, I would like to address Rant. Through a system glitch, Rant got two draft choices in round 25. I have come up with two proposals on how to deal with this:
1. Just let it go, Rant is a first timer for keeper leagues, and he caught a break. The choices were late enough that probably did not affect the balance of power. In this scenario, Rant would still have to drop a draft choice (probably his round 40) to stay at the 40 person roster limit, no other affects.
2. If we do address this, I don't want to screw Rant either, he dod not ask for this, and probably drafted by Proxy. He might well have gotten both of his 25's anyway of the draft had gone as normal. So the proposal is that of Rant's two round 25 picksand his round 26 pick, he drops one (Uggla, B. Molina, or Liriano) The next morning we have a pick 3, just like we used to determine original draft order. the winner can exchange any of their choices through round 30 for the player rant dropped. if they do not want to do this, then the player Rant dropped is now undraftable for this draft by anybody. If they do an exchange, the player they drop is now undraftable. this way, one of the 12 of us, gets a little bonus, and it is random as to gets that advantage.
VOTE (just a majority for this one)

Proposal 1: (Leave it as is)

Proposal 2

Don't Care

I've been on the road and busy at work so I haven't been on the board and using proxies to pick. I didn't notice the glitch, and honestly don't care how we resolve it. I'll drop Uggla who was the bonus baby, if someone can confirm that drop somdraft. I'd suggest that Uggla stay undrafted, but even that I'm not wedded to.

Rant,
Unless someone states a different opinion by the end of the day, just keep your guys, you will just have to drop one person at the end of the draft cause you can't have 41 on your roster.

By the way, thanks for keeping up through proxies!

kaviksdad, you can draft now.

I'm in a Catch-22 situation here. I have plenty of proxies lined up but they won't kick in unless Dave picks. I can't wait until 8 to make a pick which is Antonnelli(Thome). I'm going to try the skip pick and see what that does.

Could'nt skip my pick because it's not my turn. I can't guarantee that I'll be around for my next pick.

As for the future, Pirhala asked for a vote and he has the right to have one. On the proposal that we should change the rules and have set divisions that we change do not change from year to year.
Should we make this change?

1. litangel - NO
2. tcochran - NO
3. thisisray - NO
4. Kaviksdad - NO
5. Roscodog -YES
6. Pirhala NC - YES
7. ironwill1
8. RiojaDave
9. Rant
10.Terry101-
11. zim13
12. hawk-


I know the vote is over but thought it was a good idea.

On the round 25 Rant situation we have 4 "Don't Care's" unless we get atleast one vote for proposal 2, I will leave things as they are.

Proposal 1: (Leave it as is)

Proposal 2

Don't Care
Litangel
tcochran
kaviksdad
Pirhala
zim
