Jamie's pick was probably a proxy pick since it was so close on the heels of the previous pick. I guess his other proxy picks were already gone so we will have to wait for Jamie to check in and pick or for his time to elapse in another 40 minutes or so so BobSchwartz can pick manually.

Excuse me for butting in but I have a question (I'm in another AL draft)and checking to see if yall have the answer, or perhaps yall have discussed it already, although after a quick glance I don't see any discussions by you all on this issue.

There's only 14 AL parks which is barely enough for all the Managers in a league. In addition, we cant reuse an AL park we've played in already. If we have unique parks, I DON'T SEE HOW THERE WILL BE ENOUGH PARKS TO GO AROUND.

Anyone?

Jeep, We haven't discussed this topic. There are 16 NL parks which gives us more to choose from. I suggest picking your park earlier in the draft than you may have intended to make sure you don't get the points penalty in the tournament of using the same park more than once.

The rules state that you must use a park from the league you are using. You have only used 4 parks at the most so just pick your park a little earlier and you will be fine.

Yep I've been smoking something that for sure. :oops: OK, we are in the AL. What I said before still holds true. If you are worried about getting a park that you have not used before you better be picking a park you want before there is a run on them.

I've been in too many leagues and I got mixed up, sorry :?

Dean can manually pick anytime to bypass BobSchwartz and keep this draft going.

We are really getting down to nothing as far as talent goes. Just think if we were in the NL who has less teams to choose players from and no players that played DH. :shock:

when i made a manual pick of washburn it put the pick in round 8 (where i picked rhodes) rhodes is still not out there so i picked wagner in the 11th just as a place holder since i have rhodes and washburn went in his spot.

Dean can skip Warrior's pick in about 15 min if he hasn't picked.

by **rschwartz51** » Fri Jul 28, 2006 8:53 pm

Warriors time has elapsed so Dean can pick manually now.
