Hello Greg,



Finally got registered to post a question. Wondering when we wil find out our draft position and the league we are in.



Also, would like to join a mock league.



thanks.

Matt

sometime today

Thanks. I need all the help I can get as this is my first league in 10 years. I have a lot of catching up to do.



Do we need to draft a DH or is anyone eligible?

What city big fish?

Big Fish: Nice to have you back in the hobby!



You do not have to draft a DH. If you do, however, that player must be placed on your utility spot. That utility spot can be any player, of any position. A player who only has DH eligability (Josh Phelps, Edgar Martinez, etc.) can only be placed in this utility spot.

Hey Big Fish I hope i get stuck in your league

Be carefull Big Fish, rumor has it that you are swimming in shark infested water!!!

Hey thanks everyone. I am definately in shark invested waters. I realized this a bit late but what the hell, it should be a riot. I just hope to be competitive for much of the year to keep it interesting. I have my sights and goals set much lower than perhaps the rest. If I can just be competitive it will be entertaining which is all I really expect. To win, well, that is more of a longshot for me than 300:1.



So how and when do we find out about draft positions...Anyone heading to NYC or only Chi-town players here?

Sorry guys one more question. How do I join a mock draft? Any info would be great...dont worry scarface you will still want to be in my league even if I should get a few practice drafts under my belt.

Big Fish - I'll be in NYC. Don't let the sharks scare you off. Most of us drafting will walk away feeling good about some picks and not so good about others. Then, several of our "good picks" will get hurt or stink up the joint and a few of our "bad picks" will have breakout years. In the long run, managing the free agent waiver wire money, weekly lineups and keeping a healthy squad will determine who finishes where.



See you in NYC!



Pete

WOW,



I have not seen this many people logged to the board on at once to date! ...it's almost like your expecting to hear some exciting news or something...

Build it and they will come...

does anyone know when we find out the draft order I'm dying over here...

Also, are we going to get contacted through email with our selection or do I have to keep checking back on the site??

where is the God father today??

Ambrosius that means u...

League Forum - Forum Ace, that's where we all are.

Ace: The draft orders are being placed on the "League Forum" section of the BB right now.

thank u..

Well, I have been given the 14th pick. That is not exactly great for someone that is a bit rusty. It would have been easier to get one of the first 3 picks.

Big Fish - Which NYC League are you in?



Pete - League #1, Pick #3

Congrats Pete. I am 14 league 1. I will introduce myself when I get to NYC on Sat. 3rd pick I wanted. What do you think...Soriano?



How bad is it to get stuck with 14th pick? I mean, I have no experience really doing this so at first I was luck...damn. But I guess I also get the 17th pick as well so perhaps it all evens out. Problem with 14th pick is now I have to consider a pitcher where before I was thinking A-Rod, Pujols, Soriano

We are in the same league which is cool.

those guys will be long gone before my pick.
