No objection here.

I probably fall into the "not a veteran" category.

Do we just post our pick here on the message board when it is our turn?

Cut and paste the draft list like this . . .

And just add your letter next to your name, paste into a new message, and submit.

What is someone drafts R for hitting and someone else drafts R for pitching? Who get Ruth rights? Higher priced card? First come first served?

Bill, I'm not sure if you're an attorney, but you SHOULD be.

Let's make it "First come first serve" for all "dual" players.

Another good call, my friend.

I was assuming the autodraft would settle it, but if not frenzy would

There will be no "autodraft." It will be a token "Frenzy."

The ONLY hitters we will be allowed to have, for the whole season, are those with the last name starting with the two letters you select in this draft. Same with the Pitchers.

There will be no competition for our players. If you select "D" you WILL be the only team permitted to own Joe DiMaggio. etc.

Please guys, any questions on this, please let's ask them now.

Thanks,

Artie

You mentioned trading letters before the draft starts. Can we trade letters during the season?

No UVM. This would be chaos because you'd have to drop half of your hitters or pitchers. lol. Not good. VERY costly.

You can trade letters (Letter "pools" really) after the Frenzy (NOT individual players, just the whole letter pool) up until the league starts.

On opening day -- hopefully this coming Monday, 11-17 -- you should have hitters with last names starting ONLY with the two letters you choose; and the two letters you choose for pitchers.

All of your unrostered players of those four letters (two for hitters and two for pitchers) are your "farm team" and are the only players you can pick up.

I see your point. I wasn't thinking about the drop penalty.

No problem. I'm only explaining because we all need to know what the roster guidelines are going in.

That's also why I noted that your team locations should reflect your two hitter letters and your pitchers the team nickname.

Any questions on that?
