We will use this sticky thread to conduct the initial "slow" portion of the 2006 Draft. Please post your draft selection w/ pick #, player's full name, position and real life MLB team name, eg:
#1. Roger Clemens, SP, Houston Astros
Please consider carefully before posting your selection as you will not be allowed to change your selection after posting unless it was an illegal pick, eg. player is not available.
The pool of players eligible for the draft includes all the FA available players listed on the Yahoo FBB league site (here for batters and here for pitchers).*PLUS* Mike Cameron since he could not be dropped to FA yet due to the pending trade (but he is available for the draft at this point) -- and also those players that were officially dropped recently in this announcement though their status are not reflected on Yahoo yet. And of course, players that are already drafted in this thread (but perhaps, not yet processed on Yahoo) will no longer be available as the draft proceeds, so please do check the last few picks to make sure your choice is valid.
FYI, if you would like to leave a short list of pre-ranked players for me to make picks on your behalf (to help expedite the draft), please do let me know.
