Edwards raised his OPS 53 points over the last 5 games of the season.

Let's go!

I’m sorry I am confused. How is Fitzgerald available? I am not sure who is available.

Any player who had a MLB regular season appearance prior to opening day of the current MLB season is eligible for the FA and Supplemental drafts.

Fitzgerald played 10 games in 2023.

Anyone who is NOT rostered in our league and has a single appearance in an MLB game PRIOR to 2024, is available to draft.

Thank you. I was confused sorry. I thought it meant the current version of the game. Well that changes some things. Thanks again.

Fitzgerald hasn't been carded previously, but he did appear in games last year. The latter is our criteria for draft eligibility.

Since he wasn't carded last year, he's not on the Availables list.

Your asking the right questions, Kelly. There are little nuances with individual KL's.

Bob,

The change from carded players only in the FA and Supplemental drafts doesn’t start until 2025 based on the rule changes we passed in May.

This supplemental draft should be carded players only.

Fitzgerald, Miller and Abreu are not eligible.

And with no clock in Round 1, shoudon’t we have waited for Mysapo to repick?

Thanks

9 - 1. Change from Leashed to Unleashed (for 2025)
8 - 2. Change from needing a card in the current set for FA and Supp. Drafts to....anyone who has appeared in a MLB game prior to the current season. (for 2025)
6 - 3. Change the Supplemental Draft (which occurs in early October) from 2 Rd's to 1 Rd. (for 2024)

1 and 2 passed. I'll change the rules in the google.doc

Looks like for this year's Supplemental draft it was supposed to remain carded players from current set

Found it Ernie. I just edited my post. Thanks

I agree with Sean about 98% of the time, but this is the 2%.

Sean is technically/actually correct. So maybe I'm not disagreeing. But I think the draft has already started. And two important things:

1) Bob's initial email specifed that players with any MLB experience could be drafted
2) Bob's draft thread (with draft order following) specifies that any MLB experience can be drafted.

So, even if it's incorrect, everyone had notice and I think it's much harder to turn back the clock than it is to just let the draft proceed.

My 2 cents, which as usual is about all it's worth.

Yea, we jumped the gun by a year on the new rule. I like Jim's solution. Carry on!

And with no clock in Round 1, shoudon’t we have waited for Mysapo to repick?

No. Inadmissible picks and no clock are two different issues. I've emailed Stephen.

mysapo45, let us know if you are leaving or repicking.

Available for Supp picks if interested
