The 2017 Entry Draft will commence on Saturday, July 22nd, 2017 at 7am CST. Each day will run from 7am - midnight. We will break between midnight and 7am CST. Each team will have 6 hours to pick. If you miss your time you can always come back and select. If you know you will miss your time you can always PM the Admin account, or myself, with a list of players to choose from or mention 'next best'. We will assign 5yrs for a high schooler and 4yrs for a college player. This will be run exactly like our MiLB draft. Players drafted will be placed in your minor league system. When you draft a player list his name and # of years you want to control him. Only players that were drafted in June's 2017 MLB amateur draft are eligible. ( Don't draft yourself, or another player who was NOT drafted in June 2017) Remember you only have 75 total years for all players in your minor league system. Also, at the end of the season I will not subtract 1 year from any player selected in this draft. If I missed something or you have questions or concerns, just post it here or pm.

Posting Early? O's n I have the 1st 4 picks n unless something happens tonight to 1 of r projected picks, I think we r set to pick. So I'm asking if we wanted to pick tonight b4 we went to bed n instead of getting up at 7 AM CST on Saturday, could we post r picks early??? I understand the Draft would still officially start at 7 on Saturday but there would b no hold up in case either O's or myself don't get online that early. Plus I'm anxious 2 get started...lol. Haven't spoken to O's bout this but I bet he'd agree as well.
I have already notified Det that my first pick is MacKenzie Gore, if that helps any? I'm sure you could go ahead and send him your 2& 3 and he would have them ready to post first thing.
In thirty years, they will be renaming the Cy Young to yhe MacKenzie Gore.
I'm not opposed to you guys, in order, making your selections. The clock will not start ticking until 8am EST tomorrow, so as long as you guys know your picks and post them correctly, I am not objecting here. By all means, start now...I don't care. It just speeds up the draft.
