JF - you're pick of Saltalamacchia is invalid as he has no card for this season in the regular set.

When does the prospect draft start? Is there a time clock on the draft?

[tcochran]

From the league rules:

PROSPECT DRAFT
1) After the initial draft and after each year's annual free agent draft, there will be a four round prospect draft.
2) Each team will be able to select 4 prospects, defined as any player who: a) DID NOT RECEIVE A CARD for the current season; b) does not appear on TSN's website; and c) is the property of an MLB team. In other words, no, those who have not yet signed as of the start of that year's draft are not eligible for the prospect draft.
3) The initial prospect draft is serpentine. Draft order for the initial prospect draft will be the reverse of the draft order for the initial free agent draft. All subsequent prospect drafts are non-serpentine, with draft order based on the final win/loss records of the previous season: Reverse order, worst-record first, NFL style.
4) Owners lose rights to all prospects they release. Released prospects are eligible to be drafted as either a) free agents if they are issued SOM cards or b) prospects again, if they are not issued SOM cards for the current season.
[b:1771a9daf0]5) There is no clock for round 1 of each prospect draft. All subsequent rounds will operate with a 2-hour clock, as in the initial draft.[/b:1771a9daf0]
6) Individual owners are responsible for their own prospect research.

I'll be out this afternoon until around 5:00 Pacific time

I believe that IronWill's pick of Hundley is invalid because of roster size; I've got him with 40 players with his last pick of David Hernandez.

Assuming I'm correct, Nick Hundley is available for drafting.

But if I'm wrong, and it is a valid pick for IronWill, anyone drafting Hundley will run the risk of losing him and having to make up their pick.

So draft Hundley at your own risk until I figure out where my crack staff went to track this down.

I know we've said this several times already, but KD....

You are the man. :D

[kaviksdad]

Thanks Skns - I appreciate it.

The draft is complete minus the missed picks of LumberCompany in rounds 9 & 10, and Tcochran's supplemental round pick.

I'll put up the prospect draft order on the free agent draft thread and we'll use that to pick.

[kaviksdad]

When LumberCompany gets around to his last 2 free agent picks he can post them here.

Round 9:

[b:d42dd68c51]100- LumberCompanySo - SKIPPED CAN PICK ANYTIME[/b:d42dd68c51]

Round 10:

[b:d42dd68c51]111- LumberCompanySo (last pick) - SKIPPED CAN PICK ANYTIME[/b:d42dd68c51]

[Sknsfan]

KD - posted a rules clarification question on the draft message.
