While you all have been sleeping, I've been busy. I've created a google spreadsheet that you may or may not want to use. Gigrant, you'll probably want to access this as it will help track things in future seasons.

Here's what is on it for now (I like spreadsheets and this is likely to grow over time as I find more things to add).

First, there is a tab with the draft order on it.... nothing fancy, just a list of names, 25 rounds, and an x when someone has selected.
Next tab has all the hitters that have been selected and the tab after that, the selected pitchers. You won't need these because....

the next two tabs are for hitters still available and pitchers still available. Handy because you only have to search through what is left. Sorry I could not provide this sooner.

Then there are, in alphabetical order, a tab for each team.

Just type in the name of the pick in the correct format and it will automatically populate the players last year of eligibility, whether he bats L, R, or both, his PA's or IP's, avg, ob, slg, etc.

The first thing I will add when I get the time is a tab which will show the new players available in each succeeding year.

As a little bonus I've also had it automatically tabulate each teams avg, ob, and slg for their starting lineup as well as their team as a whole.

I can give everyone access to view this spreadsheet as well as the ability for each person to enter data themselves. To do this you would need a gmail account.

Like I said, it's possible nobody but gigrant would have need of this but hey, like I said, I love spreadsheets. Now that the formulas are in place, in the future, all I'll have to do is export information from wis.

excellent work deaf.  i was actually going to do something similar and had my notes ready, but i was going to post it in the forums after the season started and we get our own private forum.  i wanted everyone to have instant access.  my gmail account is [email protected] if you want to email me.

Also, I may be on the road for work tonight and tomorrow.  If so, the boards will not be getting updated until I return.  I will need patience from everyone during these 36 hours or so....

I had made a spreadsheet around round five although nothing as elaborate as yours - great job. I've been retired since Nov 2006. Forty years of programming (starting with wire boards and up to the fourth gen languages)  was enough.

I've never used a Google spreadsheet before, and I'm not sure I've got the software to use it, but would love to see it. I'll email you once I get a gmail account.
