All,
A few reminders for our upcoming draft:
1. Eligibility
Any MiLB eligible (less than 50ip / 130ab) player, with the exception of foreign veterans that have signed MLB deals, that is not already on a roster is eligible to be selected in this draft. Players must be with an MLB team. No drafting college prospects or draftees that didn't sign, etc.
2. Time Limit
The time limit for each pick is 24 hours. We should do MUCH better than that in terms of engagement, but that is the maximum before a pick is skipped.
3. Start Time:
The draft will begin on Monday 2/6 at 12:00 Noon Eastern Time (9:00 am pacific)
4. Pick Trading:
Picks may be traded during the draft. If you trade for a pick, you may immediately make the pick when it goes on the clock even if the 24 hours is not up for the trade. In the highly unlikely event of a veto, whoever ends up with the pick is stuck with whoever was selected. No do overs. You accept this risk on either side of a trade posted during the draft.
5. Posting your pick:
* Reply to the correct round thread at the end of the thread
* Include player name, position and MLB team. All three are required.
* Please also make sure to spell the player's name correctly.
* IMMEDIATELY PICK UP YOUR PLAYER ON FANTRAX. NO EXCEPTIONS.
* If the pick puts you over the roster limit, immediately make a transaction to open a spot.
All of these things help me to process the draft to the spreadsheet with the minimum amount of brain damage.
6. On the Clock Notifications:
When you make your pick, it is mandatory to go to the #draft section of Slack and tag the next person that they are up. Please do it every time to keep the draft moving.
7. Post Draft:
There will be a waivers process for undrafted prospects. Dates will be announced during Round 3 of the draft.
