How does this slow draft work overnight? If my turn comes up soon I'll be sleeping when my clock expires...

[Fresno Bob]

I thought we were going to turn the clock off at night

[mgwiz22]

I have made my selection.

We did talk about it. It may not be set up though?

[joncarlos]

Yeah, fantrax is set to go to sleep at 1230pm and wake up at 830am.

[Hornsby]

I think that it allows you to make your selection if you're awake during the night, but the clock doesn't run.

[revo]

Only the draft timer is set for sleep during midnight-8:30. You can still pick if it's off.

[joncarlos]

Well I never imagined that Judge would make it back to me. I think he could easily hit .240-.250 with a .390-.400 OBP and 40 HRs. I like him a lot more in an OBP league where he's probably a net positive. And of course his upside is a repeat of last year.

[revo]

Lotsa good bats on the board, but getting an ace is of utmost importance to me, so grabbing MadBum here made sense.

[Big Tymer]

Yup - SP will go fast and furious in Rd3 if not sooner I suspect. I waited really long in Mock One LY on SP and on the fence presently if I will do that again or try and grab an ace if any are left in my next 2 picks.

yep - I agree and wanted Madbum one turn after you - and then the dropoff is too much for me at that point

[revo]

If you're up in the next few picks and know you won't be around, you can set your queue and then click on the link "Max Auto Picks" which should currently be set to 'None.' You can then click on "Auto Pick from Queue Only" and it will take the top player in your queue.

Yep, it's that time!

Tim from Fantrax has offered us the use of their services to host the league (I would assume it's their premium service).

- 17 owners
- C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, MI, CI, 5 OF, UT, 9 P, 7 Bench

Since it's a mock draft I don't really care that much, but should we have position elgibility, IP min, FA, etc. rules ? We are playing it out the season, correct ? Anyway, just a thought

All those rules are on Fantrax.

Cool, thanks. I am also having trouble getting on the site, but it seems to work from my phone
