    I voted draft since there are guys missing, but I would also be fine with getting Longoria.

    Yes Prov, but I'm not *****ing about missing my specs. My team is big, and I have 1 great spec and 2 decent ones and this draft would definetly help me. The only problem is that I just get richer and the small teams get poor. But if we're doing the draft, and I get someone good, don't *****. You all are being nice to the big teams, but does TB really want another 5.0 spec to help out my team? I doubt it. If I was in there place I'd be fair, of course, but I'd also want my 5.0 spec, especially if it was one of the best in baseball.

    I was only *****ing about my "missing specs" if we put them all on the teams that they belonged to in real life...and as I said I wasn't just speaking with my own team's interest as many teams were mssing their picks including the lesser teams and that wouldn't be fair. So the fair thing to do would be either create the missing players (which is too much work and nearly impossible) or to draft the players that are in the game.

    The teams with the worst records are getting first crack at the players so how is this only good for the bigger teams? And they'll still get first crack in the amateur draft...probably next year, too. There will be plenty of chances for them to improve, too. This draft is a bonus for everyone due to an error...like in Monopoly, the card that said "bank error in your favor: receive $20" or whatever.

    Why didn't we use the actual draft order, just wondering?

    And since it pretty much is the amateur draft, shouldn't we use the format that MLB uses? Just saying, I'm obviously biased here being TB.

    Hey, I'm cool with the actual draft order too, I get two draft picks in R1 and supplemental picks
