I am in league TSN_1081 and experienced a similar situation. This was my first 1969 team. I went through the draft process, but was given only 14 hitters. I must have had the last pick in the draft because I only received 3 of my 25 selections. The balance of my roster was filled with a bunch of no names. To top it off, [u:c0f67e17ab]I only received one catcher during the draft[/u:c0f67e17ab]. On the plus side, I was to have first pick in the waivers draft. I had about 16 million to spend and had my choice of several premier hitters and pitchers. I made my selections and anxiously awaited the end of the waiver period. I was shocked to see that I was not awarded any of my selections. This was because I only had one catcher on my roster. This "glitch" in the system meant that I would have had to waste the first pick in the waiver draft on a 3rd rate catcher. Ultimately, I scrambled to assemble a team via free agency and trades, but there wasn't much left after the waiver draft. My team is absolutely awful; a full 19 games behind the next worse team in the league. I emailed the SOM contact and the response was "sorry, must be a glitch". Very disappointing. I should have been given a credit!! I have had very good experiences with my other SOM games, but this "glitch" has caused me to question the integ. of the SOM system.
