Draft Start: As soon as we have 20 members
Draft Style: Snake Draft
1. Draft: We will start drafting our MLB Draft and finish the first 3 rounds. At the commencement of the MLB 4th Round, the MiLB Draft starts.
2. Time windows: You have exactly 24h to make your pick. You have to make both (MLB & MiLB) pick within 30 minutes.
3. Player eligibility: Only players that are signed to a major league franchise before your draft starts. Every player signing after the draft starts
will be eligible for the draft next season. This includes all international signings. So you cannot draft Brady Aiken or Yasmani Tomas.
4. MiLB & MLB eligibilty: Players for MiLB Draft have to be under or exactly at the limits of:
- Pitchers: 50 IP
- Batter: 130 AB
If your player is exactly at 130AB or 50IP you can add him to your minors.
Player within the limits or players without any AB/IP can only be drafted in the MiLB (e.g. Kris Bryant only eligible for MiLB).
5. Free Agents: If you decide to draft a free agent -> you will have to take the contract he signs. So there is a lot of risk.
6. Procedure:
- Before you make your pick, make sure the player you want has not been drafted. You can do this here:
a. MLB Draft Results
b. MiLB Draft Results
c. MLML
- Make your pick
- Once you post your pick you cannot change it. You are not allowed to do this even if the manager up next has not made a pick.
- Notify the person after you that he is up. You wrote this person 2 messages:
a. Contact information all managers (=Email)
b. Normal ProBoards Message
- Please check regularly on updates in this thread.
7. Wrong picks: If a managers makes a wrong pick, he will not be punished. The draft will not stop. The manager will be notified per Mail and
Proboards message and makes his pick as soon as he is online again. Therefore, check your picks carefully, because if the draft is moving you
might lose a lot of spots. Furthermore, if you pick a wrong guy you cannot pick any player that was picked after you. You have to have someone
who was not drafted yet.
8. Trading:
Trading is not allowed before the Draft is over. All teams start off the same way.
9. Contracts & Salaries: Remember you have to stay within the 105 Million Dollar Payroll!
You can check players salaries and contracts here -> Contract & Salaries MLB
10. Yahoo: As soon as yahoo opens I will copy all team rosters into Yahoo and we are ready to go.
11. FUN: I will post a funny baseball video with every draft round. We all love Fantasy Baseball, but this is still a game and we should have fun.
This draft should be fun. I can't wait until the draft starts.
12. TROPHY: In case you have not heard it yet. We will have a trophy for this league. I am looking for one at the moment, but I am sure we will have it by the
start of the season. The trophy will be sent to the winner of the league. He then has to engrave his Teamname on the trophy and keeps it for a year.
Then it will be sent to the next winner. Hopefully the trophy will keep this league together and travels all over the world (basically between the US and Europe).
