Quick Drafts - Orioles - Completed Topic

Franchise Draft Theme
This is a simple theme. When you sign up, select which franchise you want to select your roster from. The choices are: Orioles, Tigers, Indians, Phillies, Reds, Braves. The eligible seasons are 1960-2019. There will 4 owners per franchise and those four owners will hold their own draft to select their players. The first round's draft order will be randomly determined. In order to offset the luck involved with getting the top pick (and often the most expensive player), each successive round will be based on reverse order of cumulative team salary. That means you need to choose which year of the player you are using at the time you draft him. On each pick, you should list the player, the year, his salary and your cumulative team salary so the next round's draft order can easily be determined. (I will not be administering each draft - somebody from your draft group should post the order of the next round once it's determined). Also, once a player is drafted, all seasons of that player are off the board.

This will be a 25-round draft. Ballparks will not be drafted in this version.

1. After the draft is over, can we switch the season of our player as long as the switch is to a lower salary?
Yes
.
2. Not likely to occur, but who drafts first if two teams have the identical cumulative salary at the start of a round?
Whichever team drafted later in the previous round would draft earlier in the current round.

I will ask a non-participant to randomize the round 1 draft order. Once he posts it here, the draft can begin.

When selecting your player, please post the player, the season, his salary and your team's cumulative salary after each pick. At the end of each round, please post the draft order for the next round. Remember to site-mail the next person up to keep things moving.

Remember this theme name is called "Quick Drafts". We want to get at least 6 rounds done per day. If you are going to be gone an extended period of time, please let the others know. If you are drafting late at night, let the others know when you are going to bed, so they aren't endlessly hitting refresh waiting for you to pick.

I didn't even have Dave McNally on my radar. Sure he is prone to the bomb, but with nearly 300 IP of .184 OAV, I didn't even consider the fact that he'd fall to me at 4th. I feel like I have to take him...
