26th is good for the draft. Last years combined(seasons 1 & 2) records for draft order.

The 26th is fine. Draft order? The previous years record is fine since I'd get the 1st pick in either case. :( :D After years of underwhelming performances I might be looking at a .500 team coming up though. I'm anxious to see the sims.

The 26th should be alright, though not sure I can really be ready, I should be able to get some time to pick. When will you want drops Qk?

I am fine with the proposed draft order change.

I'll be keeping Fenway, but I want to check on one of the exclusion rules and check again on Prospects.

a) I have no idea if he'll be included, but one of my 2015 prospects, Bruce Rondon P DET played in 30 games, but pitched only 26.2 innings. By the League standard he would be out, correct?

b) Shohei Otani from Japan is one of my 2015 Prospects. Can I promote him to my 40 man even though he has not played, or even signed in the US yet?

c) Henry Owens P BOS is another of my prospects; he's not come up yet, but if I want to keep him I take it I must put him on my 40 man.

d) Mike Foltynewicz P HOU is one of my 2016 Prospects; although he played in one MLB game in 2014 I take it I can keep him down on the farm (he's not going to get a TSN card it is safe to say).

e) When do I get to announce the recall of Masahiro Tanaka P NYY, one of my 2016 prospects? After the FA Draft?

I am asking the above questions now not to be a bother, but so we can all understand the rules clearly before drops.

The Prospect Rule Reads:

2) There will be a 2-phase Prospects draft after the 40-round draft. Each team will be able to select 3 prospects in phase 1 and 2 prospects in phase 2 who have not yet played in an MLB game prior to the season in which the draft occurs. The team will retain rights to those players for 2 years. If they don't have a TSN card or if you don't promote them to the 40-man roster within that time frame, you lose their rights. Each year we'll do another Prospect draft to restock our farm teams, and if you lose rights to a player, they can be picked by another team or redrafted by the original owner. If you wish to activate a prospect, you must announce a drop of another active player from your 40-man roster or add them to your roster if you have less than 40 players. The 1st prospect draft draft order will be the opposite of the 1st round of the initial 40-man draft to reward the patience of the bottom guy in that draft. It will be serpentine. All subsequent prospect drafts will NOT be serpentine & will be based on reverse order of finish over the 2 seasons played in the previous year. All players who have not played in MLB are eligble for the prospect draft including unsigned US or international amateurs.

See answers inline below Ted!

a) I have no idea if he'll be included, but one of my 2015 prospects, Bruce Rondon P DET played in 30 games, but pitched only 26.2 innings. By the League standard he would be out, correct? Yes, and he will not be carded anyway even in Unleashed with that few IP.

b) Shohei Otani from Japan is one of my 2015 Prospects. Can I promote him to my 40 man even though he has not played, or even signed in the US yet? Yes you can promote anyone as long as you have roster space.

c) Henry Owens P BOS is another of my prospects; he's not come up yet, but if I want to keep him I take it I must put him on my 40 man. Correct, if he has a 2015 next to his name he must be promoted or cut prior to the draft.

d) Mike Foltynewicz P HOU is one of my 2016 Prospects; although he played in one MLB game in 2014 I take it I can keep him down on the farm (he's not going to get a TSN card it is safe to say). Correct.

e) When do I get to announce the recall of Masahiro Tanaka P NYY, one of my 2016 prospects? After the FA Draft? Anytime prior to or during the FA draft in lieu of making a draft pick. You cannot promote prospects after the draft unless you make a deal which brings you roster below 40.

Hey all,
Just wanted to put a little trade block out without flooding all of your emails:
I'm looking for some corner outfield help, hopefully someone who can hit for power. I also need some high OB guys against righties.
I'm looking to move FA or prospect picks along with any of my prospects, of which I have some pretty highly touted ones like Dahl, Stewart, and Fried. Guys on my current squad could also move, but I don't want to trade any of the guys you'd probably find most attractive (Cano, Cruz, Machado, Hernandez, Kluber, Ryu). Besides that, pretty much everyone is fair game.

Thanks,
Lev

Thank you very much for addressing my particular questions; I trust the answers to them will help everyone.
