When do you guys think we should hold our first year player draft?
Thought it would be nice for everyone to put their opinion in, instead of just deciding on a date.
So that said, when, and how do you guys think we should go about doing this?

Same, Very flexable with time right now. I think we should also work out time slots, though.

I'd prefer sooner rather then later.....although each team will most likely not use the entire alotted time (12 hours) to make their selection...we are atill having a 30 team, 6 round draft. It will take quite awhile.....just my opinion.

How about this Friday? June 10th? I could get everything set up by then. I am doing something all day that day that I can't change....however I only have a couple picks and am actively trying to trade them so if I do it won't matter to me...

I'm fine with the date, but I think we should have all teams here and active before we do it.

True, I take back what I said. I think in 3 days is to close. Maybe sometime next week.

actually Friday probably doesn't matter to me...at the moment I don't have anyting until the 4th round anyways so it is pretty doubtful we would get that far !

yeah i agree with others, thinking sooner rather then later. Sometime next week seems good to me so it gives everyone to view their pick and some rankings to get their picks in line

Guess this is the thread to bring it up so I will since nobody else has and I don't think I am the only one who thinks this way.......Yankees are still way over cap....they have done nothing to change that....they have not been on chat...no trades have been made..nobody dropped to FA.....they promised to take care of this ....I have traded all my draft picks so I won't be participating anyways but I strongly believe that the Yankees should not be allowed to participate in the draft unless they rectify their salary situation...they should have to forfeit all picks...

White Sox, seriously, chill. I've told you i'll get on him. I'll see him friday. Okay??? Not trying to cause trouble and I know he is like your best friend or one of your best friends...it is nothing personal ...however I think you told me the same thing a couple weeks ago that as soon as he got out of school he had promised to take care of it...and still we wait...and he thinks it is a big joke in changing his name to Waldo...haha...Like I said, I am not the only one who thinks this way, just the only one willing to speak out...

Okay, I'd like to clear something. His name is Hunter, he did not change his name to Waldo. Whatever co-commish that went on his account and changed please don't do things like that or you may be removed from your position.

i think next week works best for the league as a whole. Tigers what you could do is PM one of the co-commishes or Alex a list of your draft rankings and we'll draft you the best availible guy when its your turn. add me to the vote for next week!

Everyone gets 12 hours to make their selection. Why is this such a problem?...everyone feels that they have to be on for the entire draft. As long as people stay active and check in...you'll know who has been selected and who will be available when it's your turn. If you check in and there's 5 picks until it's your turn...look at who's available and list 6 guys you'd want with your next pick. You'll be guaranteed to get one of the guys you wanted. When the team ahead of you makes their selection....you've got 12 hours to make your selection. If for some reason a team doesn't make their pick within their 12 hours....then the highest drafted player from the real MLB draft will be selected for them.
