[The Godfather]

Remember that the clock is 2 hours for this stretch of the draft (picks #65-76). Not sure how far into the clock this pick is.

[carlerik]

I pick after the Pirates. I am making the assumption that I can pick as of 11:00 am EDT. Carl - Padres

[Dr.Publix]

Mets trade R Dickey, j Guthrie, G Mota, pick 67, pick 79 to Rays for J Hellickson, J Peralta, A Cobb, and J Nieman

[jugslavin]

The league is set up as a Waivers league. As such, it's difficult to understand the refusal of the remaining teams in the East to load their teams. Can't any subsequent trade acquisitions be added as waiver claims? Even players traded after loading could actually be...traded...

I agree that it would be nice to start the league a week earlier than waiting 'till April.

So far the format is very enjoyable, the trading of draft picks for talent extremely interesting, the jockeying for position in the draft...the whole thing adds many layers of interest and fun. It's my first league of this sort. My hat is off to the ingenious spark that made it happen.

Here's to a fun season for all (starting in March...perhaps?).
