DON'T FORGET:
(1) Sitemail the next person in order to let them know it's their turn!
(2) The players whose names appear next to the teams in the "Teams Drafting" List are "keepers" and those versions of those players are off-limits in the draft. Every other player in this three-year time-frame is eligible for the draft.
(3) List the franchise of the player you're drafting!

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...

For unknown reasons, my 5th keeper will be Placido Polanco

I'm not too worried about having my team raided. If you want to waste one of your 5 precious picks on taking my Mike Leiberthal, go ahead. So I guess I vote for option #3. But I have no troubles with option #1 either.

First pick will be Roger Clemens - Astros

It's unlikely that anyone will steal my starters with their 5th pick but I'd still prefer option 1... please try to avoid taking any other Cardinals in round 5.

The Cards' first pick will be Johan Santana, P Twins

I see a pattern here.

P Dontrelle Willis Marlins

whew... finally going to break the streak.

Joe Mauer, C Twins

I'll get us back on track

P Brandon Webb Diamondbacks

Hey, I'm not done drafting starting pitching yet. Lets bump this back to the first page

I'll take Carlos Zambrano, Cubs
