NFBC Online Draft Board Corrections

Post by Greg Ambrosius » Sun Nov 16, 2014 10:28 am

Everyone: Just an FYI that position eligibility is correctly matched in the online draft room. However, I'm seeing some changes on the online draft board that are not correct. I have no idea why this is not matching again, but I've alerted IT and hopefully this will be fixed and done forever with the new online draft room. This is frustrating for all drafters.

Just an FYI so far, these are correct in the draft room but wrong on the draft board:

Miguel Cabrera: 1B eligible (not 3B)
Victor Martinez: 1B eligible (not just DH)
Albert Pujols: 1B eligible (not just DH)
Mookie Betts: OF eligible (not 2B)

Again, sorry for this confusion but it is correct in the draft room and we'll get this updated on the draft board.

Vargas listed as 1B on draft board but should be DH only.

Marc - I haven't gotten any confirmation from NFBC on this. It is just my understanding re Vargas's eligibility. He played in 53 games last year, but only 13 as a 1B. Because his most common position was DH and he did not get to 20 games at 1B, my understanding is that he only is Utility eligible. If I'm wrong, would someone please let me know? Thanks.

Vargas is UT only. Under NFBC Resources in green navigational bar above the top link is NFBC Eligibility:

:geek:

Aren't the message boards so much more pleasant this year without Deadheadz chiming in on every damn thread? ;)

Wait, what?

Seriously, I just wanted to say hi.
You may now return to your regularly scheduled discussion.

:mrgreen:

PS, I'll jump in a DC by the end of the month.

So, just to be clear, when we are drafting, the positions are accurate in the draft room, correct? They are only wrong on the draft board that updates in a separate window, correct?

That appears to be the case so far. If any doubt, pull out the NFBC eligibility page Greg linked to above.

Correct. We should have the new draft board ready soon to replace this one. Hopefully we can fix this beforehand, but all of the position eligibilities in the draft room are correct and the eligibility list is also correct under NFBC Resources in the green navigational bar above under Player Eligibility. Sorry for the confusion on the draft board.
