Mike, initial draft wise.....just drafting just Major Leaguers or full franchises including minors? Or are you thinking a set number of "rounds" where you could draft anyone?

Regardless, love the idea of the draft to shake up the rosters

Full franchises. I haven't really solidified the number of rounds but I feel like a max of 30 should be more than enough. Somehow I doubt we'd need that many.

Sounds great.... was originally thinking of suggesting 40 rounds to fill the 40-man right off the bat but I agree that so much is likely not needed

I just realized something. The initial plan was to give ourselves the entire pre-season to trade away players in order to get "protected" players in return. To keep that intact, no "draft" can happen before budgets are set.

Which was why I was thinking 30 rounds would be too many. I think most of us would try to move players "pre-draft" thus leaving the pickin's slim.

We could do the draft over the days of FA/Coach Signing and if a player is involved in a trade during that time just simply make it whatever came first (time player was drafted or time deal was accepted)

Too fast. The time between Opening Day and Roster Expansion gives everyone time. I'm not sitting here 24/7 waiting for some 'tard to pick. I figure, given 40ish days to pick, we can get it done.

Agreed, and like this because it would really increase pressure to trade in the first preseason

Did you get an 8th team? Or are there just those 7?

Just 7.

Woot. so. I can pick anyone at any level, correct?

Yes as long as they're eligible to be drafted.

Right. I was asking more that they don't have to be on the 40 man roster, though, correct? I thought I remembered something about that at some point.

No, anyone on any of the other 6 rosters who weren't acquired by trade, FA, WW or R5.

45 completed trades. It's been a hectic, yet fun, 3-4 days in Doubleday.
