Okay, here’s how the drafting of Free Agent players is going to go:
 

If your team’s winning percentage is 1251 or higher, they get one Free Agent;
If your team’s winning percentage is between 1176 and 1250, they get two Free Agents;
If your team’s winning percentage is between 1101 and 1175, they get three Free Agents;
If your team’s winning percentage is 1100 or below, they get four Free Agents.
 
The draft will be started by the team/owner with the lowest winning percentage in each division and wind its way up.
 
There is no reason for any of these short drafts to be held up by anyone for any reason (barring emergencies) so I’m instituting a 24-hour rule. Once the draft begins, any owner who takes longer than 24 hours to make a pick can be skipped. Since we’re doing these drafts in “thejuice6’s Theme League Draft Forum”, sending someone a proxy should be a piece of cake. Again, if you can’t make your pick on time, send someone a proxy.

The Teams/Owners involved in this draft are:

1998-1999: New York Yankees - 1264 (MMTDAD)
1998-1999: Houston Astros - 1242 (ROBIN4)
1998-1999: Boston Red Sox - 1152 (COACHGREAT1)
1998-1999: Cleveland Indians – 1113 (BUDDHAGAMER)


You may select your Free Agents from any team during these two years except the four “core” franchises that make up this division.

Kevin Brown played for the San Diego Padres in 1998 and then played for the Los Angeles Dodgers in 1999 (and beyond).  Both pitchers (the 1998/Padres and the 1999/Dodgers) are eligible to be drafted in this draft since nobody owns either of those teams.

Buyers remorse?

Sorry for the misunderstanding but I intended to take the 98 Padres Brown.

As  much as I want to go hitting, I have to stick with fixing this awful Indian rotation:
