2009 FA Makeup Draft Picks

[SultansOfSquat (Man)]

Since several owners were missing from the live draft and did not provide pre-ranked proxy lists (or any other instructions), a couple other team owners who had no picks in the draft (ie. The Birds, Highlanders -- thanks much, guys!) were asked to make temporary proxy picks for those missing owners as best and fairly as they could, mainly based on Yahoo O-Rank and team need (w/ occasional exceptions at makes sense). After the live draft, as was done in previous years, those missing owners are now allowed to make changes to those picks (and only those picks) w/in the 24 hours following the completion of the overall draft before we open up the FA pool for normal add/drops. Of course, these changes cannot involve players that other owners drafted already.

As of now, they have until 6pm ET Sunday (4/5) to post their pick changes to this thread on a first-come-first-serve basis before I open the league up for normal add/drops.

Here are the draft selections that they may change:

Frothy Walruses:
Any of their picks from the live draft

Senor Smoke:
Any of their picks from the live draft

Goodbye Slicers:
Any of their picks from the live draft

Sneaker Pimps:
Any of their picks from the live draft

Guru's Island BP:
Any of their picks from the live draft

Big Wood:
Any of their picks from the live draft

To make a change, please post your new draft selection in this thread along w/ the player to be replaced. You do *NOT* need to post the draft pick #. Just make sure the player being replaced was taken in the draft on your behalf w/out your instructions and/or proxy lists. The appropriate changes will be made on your behalf before we open up the FA pool for normal add/drops.

To find the list of players taken in the draft, you can use the following link on Yahoo (and then, choose your own team to narrow it down to just your drafted players):

Thank you.

And another great, big thanks to The Birds and Highlanders as well for making it to the live draft and helping out w/ a ton of proxy picks even though they had no picks of their own in it.

Ok. Done.

I'll post this on the Yahoo site, given the lateness (I was busy all week and away this weekend, hence no list!).

sneaker pimps will claim Daniel Murphy (OF - NYM) and Jesse Crain (RP - Min)

in place of Bob Howry and Aaron Heilman

That's fine enough. Otherwise, you'd probably be the first one to make add/drops anyway. ;D

Done.
