Major League Keeper League (MLKL)

Hey guys...

I added up the 2 season win totals and here is our draft order for both drafts including the run differential tie breakers

I created a new sheet for the prospect draft and I'll start working on that first.

Let me know if anything looks incorrect.

Looks good Hveed.

Too bad I don't have many of my own picks left, drafting 3rd would have been nice.

Also since there seems to be so much skepticism about the league moving forward, should we just have a check in to see where we stand? If Terry is the only slot we need to fill, that shouldn't be too hard.

Ok there is also a new 2017 FA draft page on the doc showing our draft order. I believe it is updated and correct, but if I am missing any trades please give me a shout.

I also added a 2018 section to the future trades sheet, but I don't think there have been any trades involving 2018 picks yet.

Also I believe the rosters are correct, so I think anyone who now has over 40 players needs to drop to 40. Can anyone confirm this?

That's correct.

Dropping Jeff Samardzija to get to 40.

Also...

Jonathan Lucroy is the available piece of the moment. I'm going to deal Lucroy before dealing anyone else.

It's my understanding that the 3 managers who have not yet signed in have all been emailed and have failed to respond. Which is somewhat odd and somewhat concerning as well. Hopefully all is well with them.

Turtle who is usually quite active has not been on for a couple weeks, so could be a holiday. Ray has been quite busy apparently with work. MG I saw in another league has apparently quit strat although I hope his post was just in a moment of anger/frustration and he will change his mind.

That being said we need at least one manager and potentially up to 4 to continue this league. Now that Hveed has updated everything I think we should at the very least advertise for TCochran's team and fill it. I have contacted one manager already but the invitation was declined.

Once that spot is filled, since the ratings are now out how long do we want to wait for the other managers? I think we should have some type of consensus. Whether it is a day, a week, a month or the cards come out as long as most of us are on the same page. My personal thought is at the longest until the online game is released although I think ideally it would be before that.

Thoughts?
