Pre-draft will continue up to one hour before the actual draft.. That is what we usually do!

 

[RHauch]

I can't attend the actual draft as I will be at work so I will have to make a list.

I think starting early this year help. It seems to be moving along nicely. How far would we have to get into the draft before we just skip the live draft completely?

End of Round 2 is as far as we went last year. There just isn't enough higher-end prospects to justify the live portion when they all drop to 1 stars. Keeping in mind there is a supp 1st round that is huge as well.

More Supplemental picks(31) than teams(28).. Lucky for the Twins/Red Sox that they have Supp picks otherwise their next pick would be #55 pick(1 1/2 star player).. Just food for thought that I know Cory touched on earlier in the pre-season about doing away with Supp picks.. Twins/RedSox/D'Back could have had a 5 star, 3 1/2 star, and 1 1/2 star prospect in the first 3 rounds helping their farm systems. But I am not going to debate this on the draft forum.. Just my thoughts!!
We will probably only go 2 rounds again this season also!

Oakland's 1st selection isn't until 84th overall. I might get a player with a potential of 1.5, maybe. I am thinking Oakland doesn't need to clear any space for picks, as we don't want any!!!! We will just keep what we have.

Twins will not be at the draft. Please just use computer picks. Thanks.

 

[HeboAlan]

Cards will also let cpu pick since I signed 2 type A free agents won't pick til 3rd more like 4th round

 

[don money]

[DaSoxFan]

White Sox Submit draft list to Nick

Oakland ownership doesn't have Skype, and to be honest, we really don't want what will be left in the draft when it gets to us. So Oakland will not be attending.

 

[spartanfan1]

Reds will be attending live - Skype, right?

I have my top 5 guys listed so I'll be ready to make my first selection in about 15 minutes.

Hope the draft went well. I sent my list to Cory with a few guys and CPU the remainder.
