2013 Early Draft Rules

For this year's early baseball draft, we will once again have 16 managers selecting teams.  I am pleased to say that ALL 16 managers from the last two years returned this year.

The draft is designed to be deep and difficult.  Each manager will select 25 players - the equivalent of a Major League active roster.  Once teams have been selected, all rosters will be locked for the duration of the season.  He who has the best draft wins the league.

Positions to be selected are as follows.
          C
          1B
          2B
          3B
          SS
          MI
          CI
          OF (5)
          UT (2)
          P  (11)

Categories are the traditional 5X5.
          Home Runs
          Runs
          RBI
          Stolen Bases
          Batting Average
          Wins
          Saves
          Strikeouts
          ERA
          WHIP

The order of the draft was selected at random and is as follows.
  1) Ivar Anderson
  2) Michael Huston
  3) Lloyd Souza
  4) Chris Fisher
  5) Matt Adair
  6) Ron Stockton
  7) Kevin Justmann
  8) Rich Justmann
  9) Rob Evans
10) Joel Henard
11) Marc Taylor
12) Johnny Peppers
13) Steve Smith
14) Olin Forman
15) Scott Gilroy
16) Steve Lyon

A player needs to start 10 games at a position in order to qualify.  Feel free to check Sportsline.com if you have any doubts.  Sportsline lists the number of games started by position for each of the players under the "Fielding Stats" heading.

The draft will be conducted via E-Mail.  Picks are posted here as they are made.
