I'm a little late to the party, but I don't hate the idea of splitting the difference and maybe starting in December. That gives everyone a solid month plus to be casual around here, lets the real MLB get through the first couple waves of free agency and we start to get into the winter meetings to see if anything major happens there, and baseball excitement starts to come back a little bit. It also gives you December, Jan, and Feb to get through the auctions. With MLB now starting in mid March we might not want to push it too much harder than that as we still need to fit the draft in there as well.
The 23rd hour bids are very real and the .1M back and forth bids are very real things too. Some of these auctions will go on for a week at a time so I'd be careful about putting things off for too long.
