Talk about the draft here.. like a pick, hate a pick, wish you'd gotten Pujols? Whatever...

If there are any questions or comments regarding players, the drafting process, the league file, anything, please IM/PM me.

Draft's officially started, right?

Yes, please pick if you can.

Just to clarify, the guys in the majors draft have to have two full years of actual MLB service time?

For example, John Baker only has a year and a half of major league service time so he would be in the minors portion of the draft?

Well wait, it's based on in-game service time.

You can find that on a player's page. Go to the "Contract and Status" tab. It shows "Roster Status Information"

We're going with ML Service time there.
--------------------
Since the draft is officially started, this rule will apply:

No team can hold a pick for more than 3 hours during normal weekday hours (10 AM - 10 PM) and no more than 4 during weekend hours (10 AM - midnight).

This will keep people from being egregiously delayed from picking, and will also promote lists.

I got Miggy

udh I just got surgery, just autopick the highest talent (not MR) for the first few rounds

you got a vag now?

[KnuckleBalls]

Is there a way to sort player in the free agent list? The only guys I see listed are fictional dudes. It seems like the only way I can find a ML player is to manually search their name.
--------------------
Nevermind. It appears that I didn't download the newest league file.

By the way, is this a snake draft or am I just picking last every round?

Snake draft AND , you'll get the first pick in the minors draft, which is also going to be of the serpentine variety

[Fishfan79]

woot draft time friday I cant wait

on downside some of players have some different settings like roy oswalt (pretty sucky stats) or papelbon (higher number then potential)?

unless of course I am reading the wrong then which is possible

[penis34]

Hey guys, I'll be around tommorrow. Still getting my feet wet with the new OOTP software.

Is there an easy way to sort players by talent?

[PitchingWinsGames]

See my tutorial, stickied in this forum

[PitchingWinsGames]

Also, after every ROUND (not pick) make sure to update your league file, I'm inputting the picks and will upload after every round and will probably subsequently post to say I did

So the deadlines attached to the first round are for today? I'm just curious because the thread's been up for a couple days now and we've only made it 4 picks :\
