We have hit the mid point of our summer and now comes the time for the big dollar events. 140 Mil and 200 Mil Event 5 and Event 6
First up, 140 Mil DH. Currently sitting at 156 active players with a miniscule dropout/no show of 6 players from Event #1. (162) / Live Draft Leagues will be optional for both 140 and 200 Mil Events. Last year for 140 Mil, we managed three live draft leagues, of which 30 players "requested" Live Draft, and I managed to pull in 6 volunteers to fill in the gaps, all the fillers were needed for the Thursday night LD.
Due to a first pitch date of Aug 12, this will mean the AUTODRAFT leagues will be created and invites will go out on or about Aug 1 or Aug 2. I will set again 3 Live Draft leagues which will be set for Tuesday Aug 6, Wednesday Aug 7, and Thursday Aug 8 all with times of 7pm PST / 10pm EST - the draft will be 1 minute per pick with all 25 rounds plus a stadium pick required during the draft. This will make the draft run approx 1 hour and 15-20 minutes overall. The times are set to allow the West Coasters time to get home from work and have dinner.
If you want to reserve your spot in the Live Draft, send me an email with the first and second choice of DAYS and I will see to it that you get one or the other. Last year, Thursday was the league that was the least requested and where the fillers were needed. Those not interested in Live Draft will of course AUTODRAFT.
Any questions ?
Stay cool !!
