You can't trade spots mid-draft.
The draft order will be randomly determined, same way I did the 120M draft order (one person is randomizing the 24 owners' names, one person I randomly sorting the numbers 1 thru 24. I will sync those lists to come up with the draft order). Trading of draft picks is allowed before or during the draft. No trading players.

Post mid-way down on the first page.

I stand corrected. By the way, if I understand the rules correctly ballparks will be selected in reverse order right? Draft position #24 picks the first ballpark. Am I correct on this?

No. From the first paragraph of rules:

The ballpark draft order will be based on lowest team salary. Each team will have a unique ballpark (parks with different names but the same dimensions are considered the same park).

Picking in the end of the draft was a huge disadvantage.

Statistically speaking, the snake style draft format gives a slight advantage to people who pick near the end of the order and a slightly larger bump to people who pick near the beginning. The people in the middle are the ones who really have a difficult time here.

Yup, this I definitely agree with.
