I hear ya. There are so many ways to go with middle/late round picks. A RP to fill out your pen....RF vs. LHP....hope and poke on the 2024 RP who is off to a hot start...grab a 1st baseman if you don't have one on your roster!....I'm doing the latter.

Wade is serviceable vs. RHP. Next Rd., a platoon mate for him...or....

He’s also not available. He’s on Blsmith’s roster and isn’t listed on the available hitters list.

Gentleman,

The Free agent draft is winding down, I hope it will be done by the time I go to bed tonight (looking at you mike282981 ) Normally that would mean I would set up the league and start the prospect draft, HOWEVER, I will going heading out of town very early tomorrow morning to visit with family the next few days in central NY. Between the long drive(s) and the planned activities, I will not be online much, if at all, until Tuesday night at the earliest once I hit the hay tonight. I will attempt to get the roster updated Tuesday by my return. We will start the Prospect draft Wednesday WITH A CLOCK. I will create the league either Tuesday night or Wednesday so get your teams ready to load.

Once that happens, I will have three or four league rule change proposals that will need to be voted on by ALL of you. Then you can all hibernate for 8 weeks while season 1 plays out. Thank you for your patience. Do not plan on this league starting as late next year, the goal will be to start the draft sometime between April 1 and 5th.

Thank you sir and for all you do.

League has been set up, invites have been sent check your email. Ernie still has one pick left, and sean can start the prospect draft. Prospect draft clock will be on tomorrow.

Everyone has loaded their team, the correct divisions have been assigned, the draft will run tonight, and we only have 13 picks left in the prospect draft as of this posting. With that being said, I'd like to address some rules changes. The draft pool for the spring free agent draft was not very deep I'm going to propose a few changes to the rules in an effort to improve the depth of the spring free agent draft pool for future seasons.

RULE PROPOSAL 1

Starting with the current season, the Supplemental draft held between seasons 1 and 2 is reduced by one round to a two-round draft.

For

Against




RULE PROPOSAL 2

Staring with the 2025 season (next year), the Summer prospect draft is abolished and there will only be a two round prospect draft to be held in the spring immediately following the Spring Free Agent draft.

For

Against




RULE PROPOSAL 3

Prior to the start of the spring free agent draft, all teams will reduce 40-man rosters to 25 players (or more) by announcing cuts that will reduce their number of players. Concurrent with the drops prospect promotions will also be listed resulting in teams having between 10 and 15 picks in that season's spring free agent draft. Teams will only be allowed to reduce to less than 25 active players only in the event their prospect promotions will leave them with no more than a 25-man active roster.

For

Against




RULE PROPOSAL 4

Starting with the 2025 season, USKL3 will utilize the Unleashed player set.

For

Against



RULE PROPOSAL 5

Starting with the 2025 season, teams will be allowed to change stadiums once per card set. They can do it prior to playing season 1 by announcing a stadium drop with their player drops or prior to season 2 by announcing their stadium drop with their supplemental draft player drops prior to the start of season 2. To accommodate new stadium choices, a stadium draft will be held concurrently with the spring free agent draft following the same draft order.
