we may find that slots aren't necessary, just a 2-hour limit when your turn comes up. but for now, slots keep it organized.

There is much more risk/reward for a 2 hour limit - those drafts can make a lot of progress when everyone is paying attention, but during the work week they can bog down pretty badly if there are a couple of guys who don't have access.

Time slots are nice for proxy purposes, and after today I will have 2 days with no picks to make so I will be available to receive proxies - send them to my email (rburgh@gmail.com).

And yes, I'm quite pleased to be looking at Machado/Russell as the left side of my infield for the next decade or more. Thanks for asking.

that's all right, I doubt terry will take his whole 6 hours to pick. we seem to have a crew that is checking in.
