Doing this on my phone, so hope I have the order right! We will start the draft at 9:00am est tomorrow. I'll update the first page with the details and send an email out to everyone tonight. Let's start with a 6 hour limit for picks, but if the FA draft was any indication we should not need that long.

Copying over a post from the 2015 thread. This is the only trade I could find that affects any pick this year. If I'm missing anything, please let me know. Prospect draft picks for all 4 rounds listed on the 4th post of the 1st page of this thread and reflects this trade already.

All 5 teams have their 1 FA pick and all 4 prospect picks for this year.e

The only trade I could find that affected the drafts this year, was Gyro trading his 2nd round prospect pick in the Mike Fiers trade

Another trade with Gyro

Mike Fiers & my 2015 4th round prospect pick (#44)
for
Gyro's 2015 4th round prospect pick (#48) & his 2016 2nd round prospect pick

I'd like to drop Rusney Castillo and promote Trevor Story. don't think I 'm able to do this myself in yahoo, right?
Also, can I send someone like Paxton to the minors? Or I just have to drop him to make room? Thanks

I'll do the Story for Castillo transaction later tonight.

You cannot send anyone to the minors. Once you've promoted them the only way to remove them from your yahoo roster is to drop them. So you should make sure if your prospect is up for good before promoting them, otherwise you might be stuck with a NA player on the roster or risk dropping them and have someone else pick him up.

Thanks a lot, man!
Sure, please go ahead with that change when you have time, no rush though.

I have one last question: For some reason I cannot see my roster under "My Team" on yahoo. Is this normal?
If yes, then how can I place my players on Dl (provided that there are such spots) once they are eligible?

Thanks.

Is there any list where we see the available prospects?

Check your roster for tomorrow and you should be able to see all your players including the guy you drafted in the FA draft

The first page has a list of all prospects that are already in someone else's roster. So you basically can draft any eligible prospect other than those. By eligible I mean that they need to be on some major league team's minor league roster and not played more than 130 ABs or 50 IP at the major league level.

Thanks! I'll check then with the prospect rosters. Cheers.

Drop Biddle, add SS Dansby Swanson.

[Benny Blanco]

SS Brendan Rodgers.

Can we extend the 6 hour limit on these picks? I'll always try to make my picks in a timely manner, but I have a very busy schedule and can't be sure that I can make my pick that quickly on any given day. Can we say 24 hours at least? It won't delay the season and should move quickly regardless.

Sure Benny. I don't see that as being a problem as we've raced through quite a few picks already. So from this point on, you won't get skipped until it is 24hrs since the previous pick, but please let's not drag this out!

Those of you who think they won't be around for when your pick is up, please do send a shortlist to someone who is not picking before you do - similar to what Gyro did with MGD in the FA draft.

Also, those with consecutive picks on the turns, you will get only 24 hours for both.

I take SP Steven Matz.
