We will use this sticky thread to conduct the initial "slow" portion of the 2008 Draft. Please post your draft selection w/ pick #, player's full name, position and real life MLB team name, eg:
#1. Alex Rodriguez, 3B, NY Yankees
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 (after rosters are loaded) (here for batters and here for pitchers)*PLUS* those players that will be officially dropped as part of Part I of the Draft Process. 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.
To help the "slow" draft move along quickly and smoothly, please also contact the team owner w/ the next pick (whether via YIM or email) after you've made your selection. If you cannot contact the next team owner, then please contact me so I can find the next team owner to make his pick.
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 as well.
