Prospect draft will follow the FA draft. Eligible prospects will be anyone who has not appeared in a regular season MLB game, including amateurs, foreigners, and your Grandma. Prospect draft will be here on the ILC.
[b:28bbbc94b0]Timed draft will not begin until 3/21[/b:28bbbc94b0]. We started early, the draft was not supposed to start until two weeks after cuts, so I'm leaving it untimed until that point. I know it's nice to go fast but it's only a 10 rd draft (plus 2 picks for champs since he started with a smaller roster) so we should be done fairly quickly.[/quote:28bbbc94b0]
Too funny. Good thing I'm not the Commish because right now thechamp would be without Marco Estrada. I would have skipped thechamp if I had figured out how and Estrada was next in my auto-draft. Then of course I would have to give him up after hearing the updated rules from blackjack and would have had to pick a nobody for my 3rd or 4th round selection...after gobs of the best players had been cleaned out. haha Oh god.
