Back in town and just catching up on emails, board postings, etc.
I agree with Modmark who posted the comment about being in the league is penalty enough. And I don't mean that in a partucularly negative way. The rules and the choices I've made give me an all "4" outfield with names I've never heard of. That's not a penalty but a result of choices I made at other positions. Re my Lundgren (Lowdermilk) pick: I really believe that losing my initial pick and having to take Lowdermilk is penalty enough. I intentionally left "L" as my last pick for a pitcher because there were several options left in that category. It was easy for me to go to the "L" list I had made and choose a cheaper player. The rules and explanation about the extra 10 MIL were a little confusing and as I said before I just figured the 10 MIL extra based on 24 and not 25. Then made the switch.
I do believe, however, that if errors are made before the AD, they should be fixed and not afterward...making everything work before the autodraft and after the live draft and stick picks, was part of the "penalty" of being in this league.
I'll be here checking in most of the day and evening. Everyone have a great day!
