Was Buxton on anybody's radar? I may have reached a bit for him but wanted to make sure that I got him.

Lol. Obviously he's a year away but I'll get him in the 11th next year.

Yeah, that's just it; he was a distant blip. I was expecting some more of the prospects taken last year to be redrafted first.

Would there be any interest in having a little 3 Round Prospect Draft? Obviously not this year, but in the future?

I felt that way about Archie Bradley. But hopefully with yet another SP going down in Arizona, I wont have to wait too long for him.

I just noticed that Julio Teheran is correctly listed for me at monkeyspankers09.proboards.com/thread/44/list-playersBut he is missing from monkeyspankers09.proboards.com/thread/43/draft-board-order-resultsMuch as I would like another pick (free pitcher!) I should not have a pick at 18.01. (Mike, Teheran should probably be listed as reserved at 16.01 and Adams/Ramos bumped down). Everyone else should probably have a look at their upcoming picks on the list. So may FA pickups get slotted in the 15-17 rounds and bumped down due to collision that I can completely understand how difficult it is for Mike to maintain this list. Thanks.

Thanks Dennis for being honest and pointing out the mistake. I updated the draft board with Teheran slotted into the 18th round. Not really important which player goes into slots 15-18 as long as someone is there and the contracts are correct.

Yordano Ventura, though, I was hoping he might last a little longer. Buxton and Bradley are great prospects but Ventura is pretty much already penciled in as the Royals #5 starter, and the way the rest of their rotation looks it should not be hard to hold down that spot for the whole year.
Speaking of prospects you draft every year: I suffered another Ack-Ack-Ackley attack. As hard as I try not to, I just cannot seem to help but get my hopes up for him.

Sorry about everyone having to wait on me.
Wow, the 6 picks ahead of me by 6 different people made in about 2 1/4 hours this morning (between 7:27 and 9:44), with the last 4 of them coming within 58 minutes. Sorry I was not expecting that fast of a pace, and then I got pull away by some emergencies at work and a meeting that ended up lasting almost 3 hours.
I did not get a text, so I did not even realize I was up yet. I guess that will teach me to finally ditch my antiquated Motorola Razr and get a smart phone. 8)

I had a question about the round 28 picks: do they end up getting slotted as a 17 for keeper purposes, or what?
It seems like this came up once before but I cannot recall what was happened.
If you slot them as a 27 when kept, it seems like that would lessen our already light penalty even further.

I'm all for making the penalty a "little" bit harsher (in the future) but nothing that is too complicated in the book keeping department as I am the one who has to trace these things.

When the draft concludes please move over to the Yahoo league site. I have already entered in all players up to the 23rd round so it won't take me too long to enter the rest and set the league to live. It usually takes 2 days or so for the players to come off of waivers. I will also set the waiver priority to the same order as the draft, so be careful of using up a top waiver priority. I will also attempt to have the stats for the Australia games count. I haven't looked yet, but there is usually an option to use retroactive games/stats. Hopefully, I don't end up booting the Rogues from the league instead of using retroactive stats - but no promises there. And most importantly please double check your rosters when we go live to make sure I didn't accidentally give you Melkey Cabrera instead of Miguel Cabrera.

Whoever has the last pick, whether that is the person scheduled to have the last pick or someone who is being skipped - they only get 6 hours from the second to last pick to make their pick. If they don't they can pick someone up at the Yahoo league as a 17th round pickup to fill their last roster spot. By waiting really long to make your last pick you have an unfair advantage as you can just sit and wait for breaking news. Nobody has ever done this, but it will be enforced.
