Hopefully cards drop this week, so let's do the check in and rules check now.

Thanks Grant for catching my poor choice of words, which I have now edited. I did mean REVERT to the universal norm though.

We have already discussed and confirmed the 'prospect franchising' rule, but I would like to review / confirm the prospect draft setup as well:

1. Prospect setup - The rule currently states that (2) Round ONE will be a traditional one through twelve player selection. Rounds two through four will be done by selecting a MLB team first. And then picking three prospects from that team.. Please vote when you check in to: KEEP it this way, or CHANGE to a standard 4 round single player prospect draft.

tcochran, I have fixed the 'messy rules' issues you brought up previously.

Check in and vote as above:

1) unctarheel IN; CHANGE to picking prospects independent of their MLB franchise
2) madal - IN; KEEP
3) willmurr In CHANGE
4) heekin65
5) ghost
6) Ninersphan in:CHANGE
7) Jerlins: IN CHANGE
8) tcochran - IN; CHANGE
9) bigmahon - IN; CHANGE
10) Terry101
11) Turtle
12) Rant - In; Keep

With the passing of the changing of the rules. This keeper league becomes just like the 9 other leagues I am in. Thus, I am unsure if I will continue. I have 10 teams and that is too many. I am staying for sure in my three 24-team leagues as I enjoy those the most. But, I will look at the cards, evaluate this team and then let you know for sure before the weekend hopefully.

Prospect draft will CHANGE to a more traditional 4 round draft of individual prospects by virtue of the final 8-3 vote. I didn't include Turtle's vote since he's not sure he is returning. Also, I've asked Turtle to give us an answer today so we can move on either way.

All other elements of the prospect rules will stay the same. Thanks all for voting!

Great news, Turtle is staying in the league. So let’s go ahead and post our drops and promotions. I’m setting a deadline of Wednesday 16 March for all drops to be posted. We’ll start the draft right after then.

As always, the league doc is pinned to the first post of this thread. Please make sure you understand the rules.

I can't keep them all...
some will be kept some will be cut...

looking fora higher draft pick for player or players plus a lower draft pick

but the best bargains would be Austin Gomber, Jameson Taillon, and Eddie Rosario. Willing to let those three go for a 10th round pick or a pick swap in a higher round.

I have both Correa and Adames on my roster, who will each be SS superstars in this coming card set.

Would like to trade one of them in exchange for equivalent talent at either 2B or SP.

I've received offers from 3 managers but they are hard to compare without seeing the new salaries. I'm going to wait until the new card set is published before acting on them.

Okay, ready to review those offers now!
