They add guys pretty quickly. I was automatically signed up to get e-mails on which players they were adding, but I shut them off the guys were so obscure. Chances are if you see the fat kid across the street being dragged by his mom to sign up for Little League, he'll be in their data base shortly.

Making great time on this, almost to the 20th round in a little over 16 days.
One snag is that in the past couple of years we've done the 5 round reserves in reverse order: 21-20-19, etc. It doesn't appear I can change the order of the rounds, however. One remedy is to have the system skip everyone in the 23rd round, then start the reserve draft with quoin as 24.1. We could then do the 5th round here on the board, and I could fill in those players in the 23rd round of the draft.Comment

Do we have to fill our active roster before picking reserves? I can't remember.Comment

No. And scratch my comment above, I can adjust the order by making trades.Comment

I thought we were picking actives first. Certainly would have changed some of my picks had I known we weren't.Originally posted by Weapon1 View PostComment

As much as I hate picking starters before reserves (and taking Josh Hamilton is a great reason why), it does say in the first post that we have to.Originally posted by the heat View PostComment

I've drafted Reserves in almost all my starting spots..............If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011

I was going on Piney's memory in the second post. I don't think a vote was ever held; my recollection is that the people who wanted to do away with the requirement slightly outnumbered those who wanted to do away with it, so left it at that.Comment

Oh great. Now we have to start all over.Considering his only baseball post in the past year was bringing up a 3 year old thread to taunt Hornsby and he's never contributed a dime to our hatpass, perhaps?Comment

While I am one of the people who think allowing reserves to be picked before filling out a roster is wrong. You already did it big deal.Originally posted by GwynnInTheHall View PostComment

I think I took the first reserve, Moncada, when I took him, I had an OF slot which I could slide Zobrist into to put Moncada at 2nd. I could cut my last pick and repick a pitcher, but I thought that we were ok picking anyone
