Anyone interested in an secondary fantasy league, the ARL, for those of us not as lucky to get into the Official league... ...perhaps one day the Champion from our league can play the champion in the Official League, in something called the Super Series.
Any takers, if we can get six teams, that would be cool, I'm willing to share the running of the league duties.
I know I suggested earlier that perhaps we could have a second league running for people who couldn't get into the main one. Perhaps the bottom two teams in the main league could get "relegated" into the second league, while the top two teams from the second league get "promoted" into the main league.
I'd be happy to provide advice and help get anyone started who wanted to run something like this (always available via PM)
I'll bear the brunt of the duties if we can get some interest going, and I enjoy the relegation idea... ...I may be PMing you for more info if enough people are interested.
whats the deal with the fanatsy league? is there anything i have to play online, or do i just draft a team and then theres a watch mode or something?
if its just watch mode and i gotta check some stats, then im down.
It's all watch games TBT.
I'm in. OctoFranco as well.
Ok, that's myself, TBT, Atte, Octo, so far... ...let's hold out for two more teams, I'll work on some rules.
If you need players to fill it up I can play, though I am also in the other league.
Bonny wants in.

Did he forget how to post?
he's too busy yelling at people.
he wanted in the other league.
You only are allowed to draft players not taken in the other league. It'll be a Minor League of RBI Baseball
1st pick, Rickey Henderson
I'm thinking $100 million payrolls, draft 10 players, with the 1st round pick making 10 mil, 2nd rounder 9 mil and so forth... ...then the rosters are filled in the free agent market for the other $45 mil of your payroll.
Drafted players are signed for 3 seasons... ...free agents 1 year, but original team can always match.
Using a player pool of both the arcade and the console (eventhough the arcade players will be chosen in droves)... ...that gives a large player pool especially with only the 6 teams.
Any thoughts?
Sounds good, but can 2 people have the same FA on their team? How would order of FA's be determined or would it just be bidding?
Free Agent process:
Team makes a bid, minimum of $100,000, and the player is open for bidding for 24 hours from the original bid, at the end of 24 hours the original team that put the bid in gets a chance to trump the final bid if they still want the guy.
We would have to say you can only three bids at a time or something, with a little tweaking this could be fun.
Just got another confirmed, who will be logging on later today, that makes six with ultimate I think.

I agree sounds pretty good, probably will need to tweak a little, but not sure exactly what I'd change. Maybe can't bid on 2nd FA until everyone else has bid on 1.
I like that tweak alot, let's put that one in play.
Do you think $100 mil will be too easy to work with? I mean you are stuck with $55 mil from the 10 picks (which should be interesting, really good players getting paid only 1 mil)... ...then you hav $45 mil to fill out the last 6 spots (or I suppose if you go a different route you could sign more than 16 players, just have some inactives)
Okay, $55 mil assigned to the draft picks.
The next 6 players signed for your team are 1 yr/restricted FA contracts.
Then any additional player beyond your first 16, you will be forced to sign for atleast 2 seasons, therefore making it less attractive to sign a bunch of inactive players because the money is tied up longer than just a year. <-- does that make sense? Maybe cap the rosters at 20 players, 16 active.
why don't we just make this a straight fantasy draft? i'd do that.

We have six or seven if Ultimate wants in also.

I ripped up a sheet of paper and wrote our names on them, I'm going to blind draw them now and post the draft order.
Okay here is the Draft Order -
1. TBT
2. OtherRyno
3. Bonny
4. Bastardo
5. Ultimate7
6. Attezzobal
7. OctoFranco
Remember pick contracts are as is:
1st Rounder - $10 mil/3 years/RFA
2nd Rounder - $9 mil/3 years/RFA
3rd Rounder - $8 mil/3 years/RFA
and so on...
Must start four IF, three OF and a catcher... ...must have a two man pitching rotation
I just threw those starters out there, that seems right, but you can interject your thoughts before draft starts.
just my two cents since i'm not even in your league, but if you have a draft pool that large, you may want to conisder doing actual positions. makes it more of a challenge.
I assume 2 starting pitchers and 2 relievers?
Also what about guys who are in both NES and Arcade, could you have NES Canseco and Arcade Canseco on your team?
Also, would you mind being a bit more detailed about the salary stuff?
OtherRyno is actually Ryno, right?
With that whole free agent bidding thing, how many rounds is that going to make the draft?
Teddy ballgame makes a good point about the position thing, I kind of agree, what do others think?
Two starters, Two relief pitchers... ...and I love the idea of having NES Canseco and Arcade Canseco floating around out there... ...it's a must!
OtherRyno is actually a different Ryno... ...the draft will be 10 rounds... ...then the FA bidding starts, you can make an opening bid on any player, then you must wait until the other six teams get an opening bid in before making your second bid... ...the bid on a player will go for 24 hours, then at the end the original bidder gets the last opportunity to buy the player... ...you must carry 16 players on your active roster, however you can own more as longer as you are under the cap, any player signed beyond the first 16 will require a 2 year unrestricted FA contract.
Someone is going to have to figure out positions for the NES and Arcade Reserves (more detailed than the IF/OF/C that we use for the other league) if we are going position specific.
I think the specific positions make things far too complicated, Jack Clark could technically be both an outfielder and a first baseman for example. I'd prefer the 3 OF, 4 IF, 1 C deal, but obviously it's up to you in the end.
Also, does the salaries for drafted players really matter? Since we're all drafting 10 players we'll start with the same salary on that side, is it for trades and what-not? Otherwise, I see no reason to have salaries for players drafted in a specific round. I really like the idea of just having a 16 round fantasy draft, it's not too confusing and everything should run much smoother and faster than the bidding process.
Those are just my two cents though.

We all need to be under the impression that this isn't going to be smooth as silk, but if developed properly it could end up being a good time.
We could just skip the position specific aspect, will the idea that leaving it the way it is creates a ton more free agent and expansion possibilities.
I suppose the money issue comes down to trading and the idea of the salary cap... ...and to say things like, "I'd like to make a deal with you, but the numbers just don't work out."
It really won't come into play as far as effecting future salary caps until year four when the resigning period begins, that will be interesting, if it ever gets that far... ...trading away guys that you know you won't be able to resign or don't want to try and resign.
Sounds good. I'm still confused about the free agent bidding though, and worried that it's going to take forever (kinda like how you can't do an auction league draft online), I'd prefer just doing sixteen rounds and assigning a value for each round. Anyone want to post arcade stats/positions? Are we going to scrap the positions altogether or go with the 3OF/4IF/1C?
as far as the positions per player in arcade, you have to decide what year their stats are from and then just find where they played the most games that year. the individual positions for nes rbi are in my excel sheet on the other draft thread.
just use baseball-reference.com it takes time, but it's easy.

Let's just go with 3OF/4IF/1C
If that awkward player bidding thing starts to drag out, we can change it on the fly, but if people but in strong bids for players then others can just reply that they have no interest and if it's signed off by the other players we can move on... ...like if I but in a bid for Paul Molitor at 4 mil/yr, and everyone else has no interest in Molitor at 4 mil/yr then they can say "I'm out" and when everyone else is out, we move on.
The problem is, we're going to have to do that a total of 42 times (6 free agents per team, 7 teams), not to mention if someone bids really low it's going to take even longer as the bids continue to rise. I like the salary cap (although not in real life), but I'd prefer to just do it as a 136 salary cap (16=1st, 15=2nd, 14=3rd, so on), it'll still make trades complicated, but eliminate the length of free agent signings.
I'll go ahead and get started on Arcade RBI position qualifications, Teddy, mind posting your spreadsheet or positions in this thread?
Teddy's NES positions:
http://forums.dee-nee.com/index.php?topic=10015.msg177766#msg177766
Okay, you have me convinced to have a straight 16 round draft with 16 mil going to No. 1 and so on... ...then lets make the cap 150 million and allow for 4 additional inactive players, or the ability for teams to add/dump salary via trades going into next year... ...each team can assign 4 players to 4 yr contracts, 4 to 3 yr contracts, 4 to 2 year deals and 4 to 1 yr deals... ...those can be assigned at the end of the draft.. ..undrafted players can only be signed to one year deals via the bidding war senerio.
Thoughts?
Sounds great man. I'll finish up the arcade RBI player positions within the next few hours.
Set a draft date and let's get moving (I'll be gone from Thursday to Saturday, but I'll proxy my picks to OctoFranco)
Alright, well we can shoot for noon tomorrow to get this draft started then... ...hopefully people will be around enough to get some picks in.

Yes to wrap draft... ...this is going to be a real mess, I have no clue as to who to pick, but it should be a good time... ...I'll use the same emulator as the other league, seems like the way to go as far as playing out the games.
So, the positions are already listed on dee-nee.com.
Oops.
But not the reserves
Cool...On it.
i'm in, if it's not filled up.
Okay, Nomaa is in, should we just put him picking 8th/9th or should we re-draw?
8/9 is probably good. It's really not a bad position to be in.
Good call, let's squeeze him in at 8/9 and lock the league down with 8 teams.
sweet. now, just don't laugh when i make shitty picks.
also, when is the draft. i am going to be in dc next week (leaving tuesday).
we are going to attempt to start the draft at noon tomorrow and motor thru it... ...don't worry about stupid picks, I will be making my fair share.
Where in DC you heading? If you guys need a cheap (albeit shitty) hotel room about half an hour out, let me know..
It'll cost you your third round draft pick though.
i am going to some leadership forum. don't really know what i'm doing there, i just know i get to bullshit in the capital for five days while my friends sit in class. suckers.
and i assume attezioballzio is kidding?
Wow. I'm gonna take a wild guess and say that you're going to actually being staying in the town of Tysons Corners VA, if that's the case, there's a comedy club in the lobby called Wiseacres, mention my name and you and a few friends (assuming you're not dressed like douches) will be let in, even if you're five years under the legal age.
1. where do you live?
2. what is your name?
3. what hotel is this in?
and holy fucking shit i think it is in tysons corner! i am staying at the tysons westpark hotel. what a bloody coincidence.
that is scary how you know this.
I know everything.
The Westpark is a GORGEOUS hotel. It has a comedy club called "Wiseacres" inside of it. It used to be my home club (I started there when I was sixteen). On Wednesdays and Thursdays they have "open mic nights" I used to work there about twice a week on those nights (I would run it) when I was about 16 or 17, you leadership kids would always try to sneak in and I'd have an awful lot of fun (along with a few of the comics) kicking your asses out. Anyhow, if you guys meander your way in, and get approached by the head guy, there's an okay chance that it's someone who knows me (probably about 50% since the shows change hands constantly) and you can drop my name, Mark Labozzetta, and probably be allowed to stay in the back and watch the show.
Bear in mind that it's an open mic night and most of the comics will be awfully shitty, but it's not a bad way to kill time.
Also...
I know all
that's super cool, and, by the way, how does one dress like a douche bag (because that would be a funny halloween costume)?
ok so my jankity ass picks 1st (im at work at noon, but i'll pick early or PM my pick).
ok so i can get this straight.....
1. i can choose any player from regular RBI or arcade RBI?
2. when do i assign a contract length to my guys? once i pick them or when my team is complete?
3. 3 OF/4 IF/1 catcher, and what 4 subs...and 4 pitchers?
4. after our teams play, where do i view the box score or whatever? how do i know what my guys are doing?
5. Does the winner of the league get to have a lemon party or something?
You should go ahead and pick Bob Boone right now.
Don't worry about the contracts now, that'll be dealt with after the draft. The best way to explain it is, players picked in the 1st round are worth 16M, second 15M all the way down, the way I see it is this, it insures that there are no completely lopsided trades in the league, which is good for keeping the league competitive.
Any 4 subs, 2 SP, 2 RP
The top two players (myself and ultimate) get moved up to Fighton's league, and I believe his bottom two (Ryno and McLane) get relegated to our league.
gotcha...thanks attezz.
i'll look around a quick and make a pick.
Im gonna go ahead and select Arcade version Mark Mcgwire for my infield tonight with the 1st pick.
see yah in 14 picks. :(
bumpst.
1 TBT - Arcade - Mark McGwire, IF, 16 mil/???
2 OtherRyno - Arcade - Lou Gehrig, IF, 16 mil/???
3 Bonny
4 Bastardo
5 Ultimate7
6 Attezzobal
7 OctoFranco
8 Nomaa
I'll go with arcade Lou Gehrig.
Of course, steal my pick, what a fucking toolbox.
Bonny's up.
I've got an IM out to Bonny, I suppose it's unfair to be ansy until the actual official start time but it would be nice to get the ball rolling.
Bonny is most likely working, chances are good my pick won't come till late tonight, I'll be gone late tonight, so OctoFranco will be making my proxy picks for me.
Also, do we know for a fact that Bonny's in?
Quote from: Ryno on 10/26/05, 08:58:40 AM
Bonny wants in.
I suppose this is all we really got from Bonny, and it wasn't even from Bonny, we could just bounce him and move on... ...if he wants in next season he will have first dibs.
Maybe we should IM Ryno to find out Bonny's picks.
10-4, I IM'd Ryno.
I was kind of joking, but it may actually work.
Quote from: ultimate7 on 10/27/05, 10:28:50 AM
I was kind of joking, but it may actually work.
You fuckers with 5,000 posts, inside jokes and whatnot... ...when do we pull the plug on Bonny?
Honestly, do we know if he's actually aware that he's included? He was on a bit last night and didn't post anywhere on the RBI Board.
I'm not sure, the IM to Ryno may shed light on the subject but probably not... ...is there a way we can call him?
If it takes too long, can we just give him Maris or Kingman and move on? We don't want to screw him out of a team, but we also don't want it to take all night to get through the first round, and I think we can all agree that Maris or Kingman or someone similar is up next.
Also, PMed Bastardo my proxy picks and such, hopefully I can at least make one pick before I leave.
We can wait to see what Ryno says about it, Ryno can probably draft for him.
Ryno hasn't responded yet, but I'm sure he will soon, I don't want to screw him out of a team either.
Was that Arcade McGwire or NES McGwire selected?
Also, Bastardo, you got my proxy picks?
It was the Arcade McGwire... ...and is there a chance you can resend your proxy picks?
Quote from: Attezzobal on 10/27/05, 10:41:45 AM
Also, Bastardo, you got my proxy picks?
Got 'em... ...does OctoFranco have proxy picks too?
OctoFranco will be drafting for himself and he'll be pretty prompt.
Sounds good, how long should I wait to hear back from a Bonny rep? We can draft him a team either way, just give him a generally solid pick each time.
If we pick for Bonny now, me you and Ult will roll through the next three, but then we'll be stuck on Octo for about an hour, and does Nomaa ever post during the day?
I say we give Ryno some time to either get ahold of him or make a pick for him.
Yeah, esp since the draft wasn't supposed to start until noon. I'd expect Ryno will be around before 12:30.
We'll give them some time... ...I've had my pick for about a week now.
You should whisper it to me, there's no harm in that
Well, he's a bench player from an Arcade team, and if you know what city I'm from you may be able to guess further...
I know it, I know it. I also have had my pick planned for a while, but I will wait to unveil it.
Atlanta.
I've got three guys picked (outside of adcock), I'm all set
Last post for a bit, but my team name will be "The Clubhouse Cancers".
Ok, noon is here... ...I'll give those guys until 12:30 to draft for Bonny, else I will draft for him.
12:30 CST is here.
I say we give him Joe Adcock, Arcade RBI, Braves.
Bite me... :D
He's getting Kingman...
I'll take Adcock...
Johnny Bench
is bench a C or a IF?
Is Bastardo retarded?
Well that fucks up everything, thanks Ult.

Octo, you are up again
Nomaa is supposed to be up...
I just got an IM from Bonny, he wasn't aware that he was in the league.
Oops forgot we added.
I'll be back in 20 minutes... ...hopefully Nomaa is around by then or we are drafting for him, two picks...
You're in too much of a hurry Bastardo, Nomaa can't be in school much longer, and, remember, he said he was going to draft shitty, so let's either wait for him or give him Marius Soto.
I guess Im playing and I guess I have Dave Kingman.
Whats the format? You know, # of catchers if of and shit?
Plus I need a list of Arcade players
Hurry up
I'll PM the players Bonny
glad to see this is already a clusterfuck! :D
anyways im here for some grub then im off back to work for a few more hours...be back around 5 pm central time.
Im not gonna be on again until tonight. Go ahead and pick the best options for me.

Yeah, we can really slow down, we will already be saving all the time that was gonna go into FAs.
Indeed.

Still no nomaa... ...I'm going home to paint my garage, I will check in later tonight.
can some of yall PM me yer phone #'s, incase i get stuck at work for longer than expected tommorro/friday....already got attebozzle's/ryno's/bonny's.
i dont wanna proxy, cause i think positioning here is probably important to constructing a solid team in the later rounds.
oh and i promise, not too much phone sex.
i'm really sorry.
with school & soccer i don't get home 'til six. and i had to go get my driver's liscence photo taken. i am now figuring my pick
Would it make you less cool or more cool if you told people at school that you have friends in their 30's?
If you want, we can arrance a weekend with Rdub and Miked that will be full of hookers and drugs. Tha'll age you a good ten years.

Just so we are clear, we aren't going with specific positions, we are going with 4 IF's, 3 OF's and a C for the starting lineup.
Im gonna be on spotty for the next few days. Finishing this move.
Dont fuck up my team.
At some point I have to have George Brett and Danny Heep, at the end preferably.
kisses,
Your pal

Maybe we should have someone that is around a lot and impartial (BDawk?) pick for Bonny.

If he'll go for it, that's fine, boy I didn't think my Dawson pick for him was that bad.
Text update... ...If we don't hear from BDawk in the next few minutes I will draft for Bonny again... ...I'm pretty impartial, but I really don't know what I'm doing.
Okay, I'll make Bonny's selection... ...Mark McGwire, NES, IF... ...hard to argue with that one...
Then I pick Hank Aaron, Arcade, OF
ultimate is up
Willie McCovey
Atte wants Roy Campanella, Arcade, C via proxy picks
Text update attached.
My bizzle, that will be changed in the next update...
Where's Octo?
Okay, well we know Octo and Nomaaa will be around later, so we will continue then... ...bumpst.
Quote from: Bastardo on 10/28/05, 08:02:33 AMIf this is your pick...
A. It was out of order.
B. who gives a shit.
C. Who's Johnson? Walter Johnson? Is he even in the game? I'm lost.
Davey Johnson, Arcade Braves, infield.
And how was this out of order? Doesn't second to last pick in the first round get second pick in the second round? Am I up again or not? Was Johnson even available? Damn it, you've got me all confused.
You suck.
Octo it is your pick now, you picked Johnson in between Nomaa 2 picks (he didn't post both at the same time) but it didn't matter because he didn't want Johnson.
Sorry for the confusion Octo, you're right, I do suck...
Here is an updated text, you are up, then Nomaaa for two and you again.
Actually, Ultimate's right, I saw two posts and assumed two picks. Not the case.
And now, hJose, NES version.
Nice fucking pick Octo... >:(
Nomaaa for two, then back to Octo

i have returned home.
i am looking at picks now
i'm looking at jim rice from the arcade sox for my first.
second pick, carlton fisk from the sox
Sweet, now I'm calling arcade Canseco.
i was going to pick him, but i wanted a catcher. and i have two outfielders.
I was saying sweet because I now have two of him, not because you missed the boat for the top prospect or something. hJose should be able to play catcher too though, since he's clearly capable of sustaining blows to the head from a baseball.
no offense, but i think this would be more fun with only '88 rbi-ers.
Bastardo...dunno if youve noticed, but this place goes belly up(dead) on weekends......so this draft may slow to a snails pace for today and tommorro. i'll be sure to have my shit ready though, as works is only spotty for me (as far as it appears) for this weekend.
Attezzobal selects Eddie Mathews, IF, Braves, Arcade via proxy picks... ...and he's a bastard for doing so.
Updated text, ultimate is up whenever.
i'm gone after monday, so i won't be here to make picks, and i don't know how to make a decent proxy so, if you would please just help me out.

Bonny
Is Bonny back?
Does anyone want to pick for Bonny, I don't think he'd mine as long as it's fair... ...I've drafted for him twice so let's mix it up.
I say we give Bonny the next best catcher in Joe Torre, another option is Reggie Jackson (Arcade)
TBT won't be back until around 7(EST) but we've got his proxy picks if otherryno picks before hand.
It sucks drafting an entire team for someone, I'd rather have someone working with Bonny to make his picks (uninvolved with the league)
This whole thing is Ryno's fault for getting Bonny into the league in the first place.
These are all good points, but let's just give him Joe Torre and move on... ...OtherRyno is up.
Text update.
1 PM actually...i'll proxy some picks here to yah bastardo in a little bit after i have some lunch, to take care of things on my end once ryno has selected.
nice gary carter pick...i had thought i coulkd get him this morning when i saw i was only a few picks away.
bastardo is a fitting name for you :(.
I have a feeling Carter will be a let down.
nah carter is probably 2nd or so power wise for catchers, cant go wrong there at all. i didnt do a ton of research on the arcade catchers so im prolly missing someone.
im gonna get some grub...i think most all my previous proxy picks have been selected so i'll get some new uns out, and look for a different catcher.....you butthole! >:(
So, who is this "otherryno" fellow anyhow?
He should be around, he's a real pencil dick though.
OtherRyno selects Reggie Jackson - Arcade via email... ...TBT up for two
arcade mickey mantle(OF), and gene tennace (catcher) oakland arcade version.
that is all
OtherRyno selects Rich Gedman... ...back to Bonny... ...anyone want to pick for him?
bonny has 2 if's, so he could prolly use another OF....give him george bell nes version
i'll pick for guys on the way down but not on the way back up.... :D
just called bonny, he's cool with the g-bell and torre picks...said hes still fubar with internet for a bit till the move is over.
Good enough, I'll go with Will Clark, Arcade, IF, ultimate is next I believe.
hopefully we can get through another round tonight, so i can get as many picks as i can before i leave tomorrow around 9:00 est
Tony Perez
Nomaaa, you can always try to proxy some picks my way if possible, I know you aren't comfortable doing it, but this is just for shits and giggles.
Atte chose Joe Niekro via proxy picks.
EDIT: Octo is up.
Sorry for the hold-up.
I'll take Fatty Matty Nokes to back up the plate.
perfect, i can get a round done before my departure...
pick number one, frank robinson, arcade.
number two, orlando cepeda, arcade.
I'll have a Mike Schmidt please.
Attezzobal chooses Cy Young via Proxy picks...
Text update.
Kent Hrbek
It should be noted, Orlando Cepeda is an IF, Joe Niekro and Cy Young are both relief pitchers (bottom 2). Very interesting that Azz has gone with RPs his last 2 picks.
Also, Frank Robinson is an OF.
I will update all of that on the next text, which will be coming soon... ...he said he wanted those guys and that it would seem wierd to everyone.
Yeah, he did get the top 2 relievers, just got them real early.
You are up bastardo
Mattingly Arcade...
Updated text, hopefully correct.
Only mistake I see now is that Cepeda should be an IF.
Quote from: ultimate7 on 11/01/05, 09:12:54 AM
Only mistake I see now is that Cepeda should be an IF.
I'm a dunce, that will be corrected also...
i may proxy some picks here soon, but more likely i'll just snoop around at 5-6 today and get my next picks ready.
i like to proxy as little as possible.
Bonny is still up... ...if anyone else wants to pick for him feel free but make it a fair pick.
I say we give him Don Baylor NES.
OtherRyno selects Kirk Gibson, OF, NES
TBT for two
text update attached.
I'll update my list then select here in about 15 minutes.
ok me wants darryl strawberry nes OF NY, and I want
Tom Brookens IF nes detroit
that is all. unless yall wanna give me another selection.
ok now lemme get a few more things straight. how many players can we sign to 4 yr contratcs and how many to a 3 and how many to a 2?
uh i think thats all i got fer questions at the moment.
Two games between TBT and myself (before his last two picks, and with lineups using only the current guys that had been drafted)
Hack Wilson and Gene Tenace are beasts.
uh...who did i have pitching? anyways, very cool work attezz.
OtherRyno selects NES Mattingly, IF... ...Bonny is up...
4 players per amount of years for the draft 16 players...
FA's can be signed for up to 4 years, with the highest bidder for total money offered getting the FA... ...20 player max roster, $150 mil payroll.
Text update attached.
Nolan Ryan-NES
if its ok , I really dont know whats going on
If Im not on when my pick comes up again, get me someone good. Preferably a pitcher that dominated the 80 and 90's. It would help if he is from Texas.
Ok, Bonny takes Nolan Ryan, NES, he's better I'm pretty sure.
I'll take Warren Spahn, Arcade...
ultimate is up.
There is a catch. When the rom is made I want Nolan's name changed to "Bonny".
Whats all this payroll shit about?
I guess this is how the rosters break down.

Quote from: Bonny on 11/02/05, 08:42:55 AM

It's conveluded, but overly not that complicated.
$150 mil salary cap.
Players in the draft assigned salaries based on the round they were drafted in $16 mil to 1$.
20 player roster cap.
Each player can be signed for up to 4 years, but only 4 drafted players can have the same length of contract ie. 4 players sign for 4 years, 4 players sign for 3 years and so on.

OK, this isn't right, we need to let Bonny use Kingman as an IF (which is actually how he is listed by Bastardo, I think, but not in Azz's list or let Bonny change the Baylor pick to an IF. I vote we let Kingman be an IF since I think that is what we were all thinking when we picked Baylor for him.
I draft Phil Niekro, SP.
I listed Kingman as an infielder because he played more career games as an infielder, is that how we should do it? It's close but he played about 100 games more at 1st+3rd than he did in the Outfield and he DH'd alot meaning he wasn't exactly in good enough shape to roam the outfield... ...Either was we won't screw Bonny on this.
Atte is up...

Atte chooses Bucky Walters, AR, Pitcher via Proxy Picks, thought maybe he would be around, should have just picked for him... ...my bad.
Text update.
Sorry guys
Can I switch my Bucky Walters pick with Tony Perez?
No.
What a mad rush for starting pitchers -- I'll get swept up in the bedlam and lay claim to Mike Scott, NES.
i gots no issue with the switch there attezz.......go for it if bastardo is cool.
Quote from: Attezzobal on 11/02/05, 05:02:49 PM
Sorry guys
Can I switch my Bucky Walters pick with Tony Perez?
No problem with me either.
Nomaaa is due for two... ...he won't be around until later I'm sure.
Quote from: Bastardo on 11/03/05, 08:04:03 AM
Nomaaa is due for two... ...he won't be around until later I'm sure.
Much later, probably, as his account hasn't been logged on since Tuesday. I say we just pick two for him ASAP.
And I thought Attezz was joking, but due to the seemingly serious responses by others, I should point out that Tony Perez has already been drafted by Ultimate back in the 5th round. Hence his being the only naysayer.
I believe nomaa said to pick for him cuz he didnt know if he would be able to get on.
I already drafted Tony Perez, so I kinda have a problem with it.
Nomaaa selects...
Doc Gooden, NES, SP
and
Cal Ripken, NES, IF
Text update...
So is Azz sticking with Walters or does he want someone else? Also did Nomaa send you proxys? Just wondering.
EDIT: I guess we can found out what Azz wants to do since he's 1 pick away from his next pick anyhow and I doubt he wanted anyone who's been picked since, so everything should be OK.
Nomaaa didn't proxy any picks, he needed a pitcher and an infielder so I gave him a couple that I thought he might like to have and that are pretty good... ...we should certainly rotate who is making these random picks, but I thought I would move the draft along with those... ...hope everyone agrees they are fair.
My round 8 pick is Bret Saberhagen - NES. (Please don't forget to make him a sidearmer when composing the rom.)
If I'm up, I'll stick with Bucky Walters and then go with Mel Ott OF
Eric Davis
I select Roger Clemens
Bonny picks Bob Gibson (proxy)
OtherRyno picks Don Sutton (proxy)
TBT up for two
I wish I weres here at the beginning. Im not even checking ratings.
Bonny(Nolan) and Bob will kill you.
Is it 2 SP and 2 RP? Or can we pick any 4 Ps?
2 SP and 2 RP
which Sutton did Other choose?
and which Clemens did Bastardo choose?
Gimme 15 minutes and i'll make my 2 selections. this picking at lunch break thing every day is sweet.
ok, I want Bob Horner...IF aracde atlanta!
gimme a second and i'll cough up my other one here in a bit.

We'll get through this draft, I promise. ;)
It has been moving fairly well
at this point, since it's friday, we may even want to hold up the draft until nomaa gets back on Monday.

Who's up?
i think octofranco or nomaaaa, which will prolly conclude the draft for the weekend.
Yup, Octo then Nomaaa for two
GARR Gaetti (http://www.garygaetti.com/), NES, IF.
uh im not sure but i think i already selected tommy a round of 2 ago. i'll check the list.

yes make it much shittier.
so i am up, correct?
and thanks on the picks. i like how they turned out. i was actually going to say, if dwight was open, take him for me, but i forgot, so whatever.
pick one: sandy koufax
pick two: yaz if
Tony (T&A) Armas. I was surprised to see he was still available. Far as I could tell, anyway.
Alan Trammell IF
Ultimate is up...
text update...
Don Gullet, RP Arcade
I'm looking to trade Bucky Walters if anyone's interested.
Preferably looking for an IF.
I choose Joe Dimaggio, OF, Arcade (I think he is still out there)
Bonny chooses Bill Terry, IF, Arcade (via proxy)
OtherRyno is up, I will email him.
EDIT: Terry is an IF
OtherRyno selects Tom Brunansky, OF, NES
I think TBT is up for two.
i just got here. i'll see if i cant geta selection in quick, but im a tad pressed for time. if not i'll select as soon as work is over here in a few hours.
one question...
in his later years, yaz played a lot of first base, almost all of his time was there or dh. can i use yaz as an inflielder?
I'd say you can change your pick, but Yaz is clearly an OF for the RedSox arcade because Foxx is the 1B.
So I'd say no.
Yeah Nomaaa, I'm not sure, Yaz is an OF in my mind, I'd make another pick if you want to switch him out... ...what do others think?
I think the exception was made for Bonny because those picks were made for him, and we listed Kingman as an IF from the start of the draft in error causing him to get screwed up. Yaz on the other hand is clearly listed as an OF on the site, and Nomaa picked him, so it was his fault, and really not too many IFs have gone off the board since.
I say Yaz can go either way.
don't worry too much about it, if i can't use him as an infielder, i'll draft one next round. i was just asking a simple question. if yes, cool. if no, no biggie. like before, this isn't that big of a deal.
Oh it's a big deal man-o, BIG BIG deal, you're going down. :-*
well then. i guess you can suck it.
my picks are......John Tudor SP aracade stl.
Fernando Valenzuela RP aracde dodgers.
Booya!
sorry for me being a slow ass today.
Pretty busy this morning, by lunch I should have a text update complete... ...I don't really care which spot Yaz plays at this time.
Yeah, really no that big a deal if Yaz plays IF
OtherRyno selects Bruce Sutter, Arcade, RP
Bonny selects Lee Smith, Arcade, RP
Bastardo selects Rollie Fingers, Arcade RP
ultimate7 is up...
text update attached.
Sutter is already gone to Bonny, does other want to change before I make my pick?
Sutter is also mislabeled as a SP in the text file...
And while I'm here, a quick question that has probably already been answered somewhere: Do we have to have four infielders in our starting line-up, or just somewhere on the roster (be it bench or starter)?
4 IF in your starting lineup, I thought
Another question, this is a 16 round draft right? Are we still doing FAs afterward to have extra on the roster? If so does that mean I can draft 3 SP, and then add a bench player through FA, or do we have to draft 2 SP and 2 RP + 12 batters?
Sutter will be changed to RP in next update...
OtherRyno switched his pick to Lew Burdette, Arcade, RP
I suppose if you want to draft three starters that is fine and just fill your bench void with a FA, however the active pitchers can only included 2 starters at a time.
We are doing the FA thing up to a $150 mil payroll per season... ...which is a set amount available per team because of the draft this season but should shake out differently once original contracts start to expire next season.
Lew Burdette was a spitballer, I say we ban him from our league (Joe Niekro on the other hand, he's a valued member of my team and we scoff at any allegations)
Carl Hubbel, RP
Whitey Ford, SP, NYY, Arcade
Doug DeCinces, NES (IF)
pick one: dizzy dean arcade?
pick two: john franco nes
Roger McDowell, NES (RP). Which reminds me, he was appointed to be Leo Mazzone's replacement for Braves' pitching coach. Don't know if someones mentioned that yet for the WATN.

I honestly can't believe you're still drafting
We're waiting on Atte to pick at this point, although we may go proxy on him if he doesn't come around.
Anyway, I'm definitely not up. Unless I messed up somewhere it's Bonny.
Here's the fully updated text file
You're right it is Bonny, that turd nugget, I'm going to proxy his a$$.
Bonny selects Glenn Davis, NES, IF via a proxy from a couple days ago just to get this moving again.
Although it's no big deal, but for the rest of the draft, I say that after you pick you then say "followed by <team name>

when i saw this i thought he could be a real good pick up for salary cap reasons way down the line. especially at the IF position. his contact is kinda shitty, but 900 power for some peanuts salary wise is a decent late round pick up.
Bobby Bonds
Chet Lemon, OF, Detroit, NES
EDIT: Oops
Tim Laudner, NES
i don't see wade boggs taken...
so i'll take him (arcade).
i am hurrying to get to school, so if he's gone, i'll deal with it later.
