Please be patient guys. We will skip garyx23 for now.... He can make his 1st round pick at anytime.
These 1st few rounds are pretty important and there is quite a bit of research to do. You've gotta remember, most if not all of us have lives outside of WISland which includes work. Me included and without internet access at work I can't update salaries and draft order during the day.

Actually I'm home early today! Updating things now.
schwarze can start round 2.

So no DH?

garyx23 make your pick ASAP so I can insert you into the correct order for round 2 otherwise you'll have to pick last if we get to that point.

No DH this time around, maybe #2.

From bheid408's original Classified Ad for the theme:

"No AAA, WW, DH, Trades, Clones, Injuries, Live Play."

I smell a run on pitching, and since I already have Pete Alexander and Christy Mathewson, I'd better grab the next best option...

1997 Greg Maddux

...while adding a few other nice pieces to the team...

Smart move schwarze, I however have half my IP already and no infield. So I will take, Gehringer 1937, with excellent 2B and C mates my IF is almost complete. I already have 5 of 9 teammates decided. There will be a lot more than 9 excellent teammates to chose from I think.

I will take 1917 Eppa Rixey, if he is still available.

Still going slow I see. Looks like it's about time for a clock. Also, if anyone would like proxy assistance, I'm available most every morning (Pacific Time).

Sorry for the delay - I was traveling. I'll go with 1934 Carl Hubbell.

I must say, this is the slowest draft in which I've participated. I know it takes some research, but we are slowing to a halt.

Could make a pick a day. Update at the end to post new salaries and everyone would know when they are picking the next day.

good suggestion. i'm not talking about making everyone pick every half hour, but trying to make a pick a day seems reasonable
