Ok, we're getting things started going now

Simply random order. I would be willing to switch my pick with Baltimore.

[redsfan28]

I've never done a snake, how does it work?

[Kingdom]

If there's going to be a draft, it should be based off hoow good or bad a team is. IE, KC is numero uno. Yankees, Red Sox, Angels, White Sox or Mets should be last.


Snake starts with whoever picked last in the first round. Whoever picked first in the first round, would pick last in the second round. Then you flip again.

[OrioleMagic]

How is that order based? Why is an iffy talented team picking late, like Baltimore, where a good team like the cubs are picking early?

Just got back... trying to read everything... since we are not having a fantasy draft... what the heck is going on? W/O a fantasy draft... any other draft should be based on last years record...

Why don't we base it off last year's records, as they do in the real draft?

[Kingdom]

Record would work, mostly.

[Fishercat]

I don't have a problem with using last year's record, even if it does (and it will) hurt my pick.

And a snake, as explain, goes like..

1st round: 1st team, 2nd team, 3rd team...28th team, 29th team, 30th team
2nd round: 30th team, 29th team, 28th team...3rd team, 2nd team, 1st team
3rd round: 1st team, 2nd team, 3rd team...28th team, 29th team, 30th team

Ok, I will find last season's record and go from there.

[Molina00]

I don't mean to nit-pick here but, I don't get some of the contracts of a couple guys.

Teixeira is making $6 million this year but is making $7.7 million in the game.
Blalock is making $3 million this year but is making $5 million in the game.

My team doesn't have a whole lot of money so little things like that can make a big difference for me.

[Kingdom]

I wouldn't expect contracts to be completely accurate.

[redsfan28]

Ok, here's the revised draft order:

1) Kansas City
2) Pittsburgh
3) Colorado
4) Seattle
5) Tampa Bay
6) Los Angeles Dodgers
7) Detroit
8) Cincinnati
9) Baltimore
10) San Francisco
11) Arizona
12) Texas
13) Chicago Cubs
14) Toronto
15) Milwaukee
16) Washington
17) San Diego
18) Florida
19) Minnesota
20) New York Mets
21) Philadelphia
22) Oakland
23) Houston
24) Atlanta
25) Cleveland
26) Anaheim
27) Boston
28) New York Yankees
29) Chicago White Sox
30) St. Louis

[redsfan28]

Contracts aren't completely accurate. Griffey only makes $7.5 mill in the game but makes $12.5 mill in real life.

[Kingdom]

Saucy.
If people don't want this rushed, I can run it later in the week if need be.

[Molina00]

I am aware of that but it just seems like $1.7 and $2 million dollars higher is quite a bit of difference.

I also noticed that there are two identical Josh Rupe's on my team, and two David Wells in the league with slighty different ratings from each other.

[Kingdom]

Anyone notice that the defectors have 0's for talent. Hehehe.
