Draft Date Poll

[MembersOnlyJacket]

Now that rosters are legit, when should we start the draft ?

Why wait until March? Figure out the International FA thing and start ASAP.

If we can get everyone to sign on an earlier date, I'm all for it. I'm actually better off this week than next.

I'm cool with whatever date. I won't be able to access a computer during work hours but I can check in during lunch breaks (I'll be working 8 AM - 12 PM, 1 PM - 5 PM PST) but I can send proxies if it's a big deal.

We're not picking 1 date though, right? We're just going to make picks here?

 

Truffle has already said who he's picking first. Why not just start the draft now?

no, IIRC we do the draft on the cbs site, but we do it as an extended draft with no time limits (so everyone doesn't need to be present at one time). i don't remember if we were PM'ing each other about whose turn it is, or if the CBS draft thing sends an e-mail automatically.

 

but yeah, it will definitely take a while to complete and then we have to do the prospect draft (which is done here), so it's much better to get the ball rolling sooner rather than later. the fourth option in this poll would be far, far too late - we'd only have like 4 days until opening day to get through a 12 round extended draft and the minor league draft. last year i think we started around march 5 and didn't finish up for like 2 weeks.

[expletive] it, let's start now. i'll be in AZ next week, but i was there last year during the draft and i was a drafting superstar.
