Wow, these nominations happened quickly. I'll try to make mine tonight but it might have to be tomorrow afternoon if that's OK.

As long as we get a complete write-up on your draft, I think we'd all agree that's fine.

This draft will be a completely different experience than the last one. There are actually a lot of decent players in this draft pool. Removing deadball pitchers obviously helps. I had a few high-priced stiffs in mind, but the high salary just isn't really punitive enough.

This holiday season, everyone gets Barry Bonds in their stocking. (assuming this nomination sticks, of course)

Just to confirm, we have the customary 24 hours to change our selection, correct?

schwarze, you have a different AVG salary for Adam Eaton in the division alignment compared to the position list. Not sure which is correct. I can check later which it is, but guessing you have it and just had a typo.

Much like The Grinch, I'm going to yank Barry Bonds out of everyone's stocking and replace him with:

Tony Conigliaro (I'll take 1975, which doesn't show up on some initial searches because he's DH-only)

Average salary: $3,064,463

I calculated it using the rules about including combined seasons, but not partial, and got the same 2,884,189 number schwarze used for the division alignment.

I would love to see a return to the “silent auction” format for season selection so the draft isn’t continually delayed by people switching players to improve their draft position.

It also sets people back for research.

I understand there has always been a grace period in which changes can be made.
And I'm not faulting anyone who takes advantage if it.
But I'll throw this out for consideration. In the future, how about a draft (in order of finish, or reverse order of finish) where you make your selection and then have to stick to it.
