hope we can wrap this up today.

Can we just give Frank the Red franchise right now?

Just to clarify - not sure if this changed during any of the on-the-fly rule changes - the selector of the Braves/Athletics franchises still gets the first pick in the one shot free agent draft?

correct

Once we get these last selections made I'll post the draft order for the free agent component. I'm hoping we can move along quickly today !

Once Musial picks... the last 3 will fly bye...Hello WRKP in Cincinnati..Frank

Just to help a knucklehead like me, can you also post specific definitions about eligibility:

- Player with highest card on franchise other than 12 primary, but with lower priced card on 12 primary:
-------> Ineligible if highest card is DB, Pre, or Post
-------> Eligible for infusion franchise if highest card is in Exp set of franchise attached to a primary
- Player with card on infusion franchise but with higher priced card on unused franchised - ineligible for infusion franchise but eligible for FA draft, correct??
- Player with card on unused franchise and no cards on any selected franchise - eligible for FA draft if expansion franchuise, ineligible if pre-expansion
- Negro Leaguers - eligible for FA draft

For example:
- Lajoie ineligible for Indians because highest card is As (an infusion Exp only franchise)
- Foxx/Simmons ineligible because only cards are for infusion franchise but earlier than expansion years
- Helton eligible for FA draft
- Beckwith eligible for FA draft
- Clemens not eligible for Red Sox auto draft card, but eligible for FA draft
- Big Train ineligible because only cards are for pre-expansion franchises not included in primary 12

Am I close to understanding, finally?

I sent Musial a PM in case he didn't realize he was at the podium.

I'm aware - trying to make an informed decision. Thus, another question or example to help me understand this free agent labyrinth.
If, e.g., I select Tigers and Twins, is Dean Chance available to me as a Twin, either his Angel card or Twin card, or only as the supplemental one-turn free agent selection?
