What is the ruling on trades now? Are we not allowing any trades of just picks or are we not allowing any trades? No trading until after the drafts.If we are allowing trades that don't involve draft picks are we allowing trades of players on our roster from the initial filling from our namesake franchise and already made picks (Pujols, Gonzo, etc) as they are made? Just wondering. Not necessarily looking to trade but felt a clarification would be good to have here.

That's what you call deep wit. I am not old enough to have watched the show "Dynasty" but the big main actor in this epic and long-running TV show in an episode was shot in the show and was not part of the show for I believe a season (maybe more?). The character's name was J.R. Then later on the actor returned to the show and they made the gun shot season(s) earlier a dream sequence of one of the characters and J.R. was back on the show! J.R. (main star of the show) = Pujols (main star in the majors, also referred to as The Show) Someone shot J.R. and he left the show and all fans of the show cried. Non-dynasty minds value Pujols more-so than dynasty minds do and if someone passes on the guy it is almost like he got shot it is so stunning! I know, a stretch. Umm, not "Dynasty", it was called "Dallas". Definitely a peculiar reference to it.

Didn't think he'd go that early. There is a lot to like about him.

Don't forget you can have another GM/owner pick for you by proxy. If he agrees to do it, just shoot him a proxy list of players you'd like to select for the next pick (in order of preference).

Sorry for the delay in picking folks. Just flew from east coast to west coast. We were only at pick 3 when I boarded so I assumed I would be safe. My bad.
Won't happen again.

PMed Mariners
Also, literally all the guys I was thinking of selecting in round one were drafted except for Soria....so I was happy he was there for me. Way to go guys! That being said, I view Soria as first round caliber for a number of reasons and am more than happy to have him in the fold. He is young, has been highly effective his entire career, is the unquestioned closer on his team, has a 3-year track record as "the guy" on his team to close it out among other things.
I already feel like the players I am hoping might be available to me in round 2 probably won't be. Got some savvy fantasy baseball minds here I see.

who was I supposed to pick genious? Really? Relax. Reactions and even sometimes debate are pretty typical for an offline draft like this. You got a good player. Maybe better than that. If you like the pick, who cares what anyone thinks?
