45 round drafts...

I'm not sure if this is the first year of doing the 45 round drafts or not...but one thing I'll guess will change in the future...MORE ROUNDS!!!

Things could get ugly with no free agent additions.

I'm guessing there could be demand for 50 or 55 rounders next year.

That's the beauty of them. Those 2 teams we did are already looking better than the main team.

You kind of knew that would be the case during the draft though, no? I wouldn't be against more spots, but I'm also cool with 45. I think with more spots, people would continue to take the same fliers(viciendo, p alvarez, etc) and want 60 spots the next year.
