NEW STRAT KEEPER LEAGUE

[TefJ]

Happy opening day tomorrow, good luck to everyone. Here are a few things:

1) Remember that, until later in the season (forgot the exact game), your roster can consist of only 25 healthy players. Russ, you currently have 26, please cut one before tomorrow night at 10pm.

2) My pick at the end of round 3 was accidentally deleted by cutting and pasting, but it still exists.

3) I'm looking for a closer, preferably one with less ballpark HRs than Francisco have.

Here's to a fun and competitive season.

WPWangfuddle trades:

Chris Carter - 1b Oak (prospect)
Chris Young - SP SD (or to be cut if not desired by Rick)

to RickP for

Jonathan Papelbon - RP BOS

Rick to confirm.

First off, congrats to Steve for winning the championship, especially after getting in a 2-0 hole.

We're going to have a 3 round draft, where teams can select anywhere from 0-3 players. I will let Billy set the due date for cuts when he gets a chance. After that, we'll be ready for the second season.

Yup, congrats again to Steve. I will send out an email to everyone, requesting that we have cuts in by Friday, a week from today.

I will get us started on the cuts for the Supplemental draft. Lions release:
1) Elijah Dukes
2) Kip Wells
3) Nick Blackburn

Also, litangel suggests we follow the lead of another league, and post exact times for each person to draft. (Here's a link below.) I think this is a great idea. They did not use it in the first round, but since our league has always used time limits in the first round, I propose using it throughout. You're welcome to weigh in with thoughts.
