STATUS OF PRIMARY DRAFTS

Completed:
1B
2B
3B
CF
RF

Still in process:
C
SS
LF
SP
RP

For the 5 drafts still in process, the 2-HOUR DRAFT CLOCK STARTS SUNDAY AT 10 AM EASTERN -- to run 7 days per week, 10 AM - 10 PM Eastern

Rather than just skip a manager who does not pick in the 2 hours, though, the next highest salaried player will be auto-drafted for him at the end of the 2 hours.

Likewise, rather than keeping everybody waiting, a manager could also type in "auto" next to his name in one or more drafts. With that, the next guy could process the autodraft choice for him immediately, without having to wait for 2 hours. As always, proxies work well, too, and are encouraged.

There will be no clock in the wild card draft until after all of the remaining eligible players are transferred in (when the initial 10 drafts are completed). The clock for the stadium draft will begin after all of the other drafts are completed.

NOTE: When only $0.50 mil players are available in the SP, RP, or Wild Card drafts, then we will switch to 1-hour draft clocks for them. At that stage, managers' turns will be skipped unless on "auto" and any remaining picks will auto-fill after the last turn expires.

A question was asked about changing an auto-pick...

If you can get to it before the next pick is made -- and if that particular draft has not been locked -- then you're okay. The auto-pick is only locked in place when the following pick is made.

If you do swap picks in the proper time frame, then put the original auto-pick back into the list of available players.

WILD CARD DRAFT

There will be no clock in the wild card draft until all 10 initial drafts are completed.

That said, there is also no reason to wait until then. From where we are at the moment, the only additional players to be added to the wild card pool are:
- 3 C at $0.50 mil
- 15 SP at $0.50 mil
- 11 RP at $0.50 mil

There are 25 players in the wild card pool now with salaries greater than $0.50 mil -- LET'S DRAFT SOME OF THEM!
