Before we go any farther, a situation has come up that everyone should be aware of: Since we're able to raid each other's rosters during this draft (except for the keepers, of course), there stands a chance that someone with their last pick can, in a sense, go in and grab someone else's starting catcher - probably leaving them with hardly any recourse.

Three ways we can go here:

(1) Before the draft begins, get with the other owners in your draft and ask them if, after the fourth round, that they make each other's teams off-limits for the last round;
(2) Before the draft begins, make your Catcher (or some other position that would be affected) one of your keepers; or
(3) Just leave things the way they are and say "Let the cards fall where they may!"

Totally up to you guys in each draft - I don't care either way. Just something we thought you should be aware of...

Good morning, guys. This should be fun.

My first pick is Nap Lajoie - 2b

With regard to the juice's message above, I would be happy with option (1). Can be flexible, however, if you both want option 2 or 3, I would like to reserve the right to adjust my keepers.

Hey calhoop, I'm good with option one. Plenty of good picks without poaching (and revenge poaching - I DO have the last pick :)

GL to you both!

Then again Donie Bush looks like the best unprotected SS...

I'm good with option 1... And looking over potential picks as I write this.

The Tigers would like to welcome Christy Mathewson from the Giants.

A's will take Shoeless Joe Jackson. At least we'll have a scapegoat for suspicious losses.

Pirates happy to add Ed Walsh.

Gosh, I seem like a glutton, but I guess I'll go with Three-Finger Mordecai Brown of the Cubs.

Tris Speaker - Red Sox

Glad I checked in before turning in for the night.

Walter Johnson - P for the Pirates.

Pleasure drafting with you two. See you tomorrow.

Well, gonna have to stick with pitching and take Cy Morgan of the Athletics (sorry Yaz!).

Better get Orval Overall - Cubs

Sherry Magee - Phillies
