YIKES!!!! Shifting Sands Draft Thread

[Mr Baseball World]

I am up to 3. mrbbw seems to be the one I use of late but I can live with mr_bbw or mrbaseball. I'll find it.

MM: I think it is part of a secret FBI sting coordinated by "our friend" :wink:

let's keep picks here until we catch up on penn's site.

load your first picks as proxies and turn your proxies "on"

I'm going to report you, you liberal whack-job!! Misappropriation of Canadian/American web resources.

[Mr Baseball World]

Am I correct that compliance is required during the entire season but that (other than alternating NL/AL picks), it is not required in the draft?

Someone could change their mind midway through and have drafted infielders from two decades or too many 1's defensively or draft a 1 and then not have to draft 2 4's etc. Is that correct?

[Mr Baseball World]

Tell them to look for a good Jewish boy named Abdul with a swastika on my arm and an aclu pamphlet in my hand, they will be sure to find me :wink: ...........there was supposed to be some humor somewhere in this but .......there really seems to be no point.

i will check tomorrow, but some of the roster-compliance themes may be "at all times"


bummmed, Mets lost. Umpire squeezing strike zone really hurt Glavine.

[MEAT]

suggest we stay in compliance throughout draft except for flexibility of your dh, and jewish players don't have to conform to decade. once you've set your decade for infielders or outfielders, a few other owners will be drawing from the same pool...don't really think it's fair to have some people mixing and matching, then deciding decade later and throwing back a high impact player from the 1940;s or 20's to whomever sees him first on the f-a wire...or reducing the already battled over decades.

[Mr Baseball World]

What is the difference between switching mid stream and waiting until after the draft to trade in all three? Or would you not allow a decade switch after the draft?


So if two guys pick the same decade for pitchers and suddenly one realizes there aren't any decent non * ones left he is just screwed? Either has to wait until after the draft or ????

[MEAT]

that'd be my opinion mrbbw, but it's unc's rule and foggy's commissionership. I guess maybe I can hope bigm decides against the 20's outfield and I can still get zach wheat, or modmark doesn't like the 60's and I can still get frank robinson...but I'd rather see that happen through trade or after draft. imo.
foggy, ive loaded first four rounds as proxies on penn's sight, I'll send you a p-m here with my next pick since bigm may check in any time english time and I won't be up until after 8 pst in the a-m.
