No... just post it. Multiple mock drafts is awesome.

Ok. I don't have any pictures, so just refer to diesel's for that I guess.

Picks 1-12 have been submitted.

Good job, LC.

[liquidcrash]

Thanks, though I see a couple errors I wish I had corrected before submitting it. Oh well, proofreading has never been my specialty.

Part two appears to be up now.

Ok, my draft preparation is now 100% complete. So...let's start this draft in the forum right? What harm could it do?

What is a "sandwich pick"?

[Clay]

Mmmmmmmmmm... Sandwich pick.

What is a "sandwich pick"?

• Draft Pick Compensation
  • Draft pick compensation is disabled in the game. It is instead determined by our custom rules.
  • Eligibility for compensation is determined by how much a Free Agent signs for. Players are classified into two Types.
    • Type A: $13 million AAV and up. Compensation: 1st Round Sandwich pick
    • Type B: $9 million to $13 million AAV. Compensation: 2nd Round Sandwich pick
  • Players are only eligible for compensation if they played their rookie season (lost their rookie eligibility) with the team that is losing them in Free Agency and have never played for another team. Rookie eligibility is: A player with less than 130 at-bats, a pitcher with less than 50 innings pitched.
  
  
  • Draft order for Sandwich picks are determined by how much the players sign for. The highest paid (AAV) player's team will receive the 1st pick, etc.
  • Sandwich Round picks cannot be traded

Thanks Andrew. I looked through the rules but must have missed it.

Draft has started. This utility sometimes does funny things so please make sure it picks the players you want if you're set to auto pick. I recommend picking manually for the first couple rounds until the talent thins out.

Pawtucket... you're up.
