I would like to start the draft tomorrow (Friday the 19th). I know people work so the official start is when tgrun submits his pick.

Well, with the first pick in the 1909 draft, tgrun chooses the all you can eat buffet known as the Boston Doves.

I've changed my mind a billion times. I wish I could trade down and get ... something.

But instead I will take

First time having a full team! No filler players this season.

I was hoping the unlimited teams would still be on the board. They should be fun to put together. I will settle for the Chicago Cubs.

Same here! Not surprised they went so quickly, though. It is enticing

1909 St. Louis Cardinals

Gotta be honest…I was intrigued enough to go and make a team in the hopes they would fall to me. IMO, you could put together a pretty damn good squad with the Nats/Sens.
