Chain Reaction Draft Topic

Any idea what you are going to do if someone ends up with 14 or more pitchers? Probably won't happen but with slots being moved around you might get behind others who draft pitchers and you don't have room for em?
I really don't see this being an issue. You have 13 picks that you are in charge of. It's unlikely the other 12 would all be pitchers, but even in that extreme case, you would be able to offset them.

People will end up with different numbers for pitchers, but as the draft progresses, you should be able to see where you're heavy or light, and make your own picks accordingly. I cannot see anyone getting stuck with too many pitchers unless they aren't paying attention to how the draft is going.

For reference: Only one owner has 3 pitchers so far, through four picks. 23 owners have two or fewer.

Please check your sitemail. Sorry for the flip-flop on the schedule issue, but given feedback today, I think it's best to continue off the clock. I do hope everyone can be as respectful as possible to either let everyone know if you won't be around for a bit, or to leave a proxy.

To those who wanted a clock, I do understand your frustration, but I ask that everyone (myself included) find a bit of a patience so we can do this right and create a good, competitive theme.

Why thank you sir!
I feel the need for a 2A to go along with Ed Walsh. Probably pushing the salary bounds but Jacob DeGrom.
Agreed on the clock thing. Lets get through the Mother's Day weekend and see where we are on Monday. No rush. Lets do it right and have fun!

Things brings another point: please review the list on Page 1 before each pick to save unnecessary delays.

Just sent navy another sitemail. We were making good progress today...

My bad, I did look at page 1 but I must have skimmed too fast. Didn't think that player would have gone so early.

Also, chill out. Its not the end of the world if everyone has to wait a few hours. I don't need multiple sitemails in a few hour period, that's not going to help if I'm not logged in here at the site.

I don’t understand replies like that. You made a mistake - which is fine, it happens - so just apologize and move on. Telling people to chill out and that making them wait is not a big deal is not an appropriate response. Especially since we just had a discussion about respecting other people’s time while we’re off the clock.

Well said, Jtsops.

Totally understand the frustration with multiple site mails. I apologize for my part in that as I attempted to reach out before posting on the forum to see if I could catch you before you went off to whatever life activities you had planned for the day. Lesson learned - let's just let the league creator take care of any issues like this.
