Well guys, I hate to do this as it doesn't look good for me this Saturday/Sunday for the draft, unless the weather is bad, as I have a baseball tournament (and rain cancels it) and I have to coach a couple different teams and may not be able to attend the draft. I'll set my keeper picks, but if we do the draft this weekend and I hate to do it, but if somebody wants to take over this team, I guess I'll step aside, cause missing this draft is a kiss of death for the season.........let me know. Keepers: Jose Abreu Manny Machado Bryce Harper Jose Batista Giancarlo Stanton George Springer Gerrit Cole
Maybe we can ask one of the guys in my yahoo 3 teams per owner league to draft for you. Speaking of that, you need to rejoin.
Okay, Sunday seems to be the best option. Hopefully Sam is good with that too. Draft is set for Sunday, March 20, 2016 at 5:00 PM ET.

Were you guys able to find someone to take over my team, as I really hate to do it as I look forward to this league and have built a pretty good keeper squad, but if you aren't able to draft, that ruins everything. I would rather let someone take it that can make the draft. I unfortunately have to coach a couple baseball teams tomorrow and the games could go to 8PM (CDT) unless both teams are bounced out earlier in the tournament, which I'm not expecting. So I would feel better if you were able to get somebody to take over so they could draft a good squad... Let me know...
Why don't you try to find someone to draft for you? You know how hard it is to recruit for this league. We can't afford to lose you. I can add someone on as a second owner for your team if necessary.
Yes, and yes. You are on the exact opposite side of the earth from me, so we are 12 hours apart. If I dug straight down, I would come up in your yard.
heard rook put it this way 'step in and get hit by that next pitch or you'll be drafting the next 3 rounds for me'
My draft was just wonderful, though I did try and get a few picks in between innings - was able to get 2-3... But no I didn't have any of my players do it, though I had a few that had to sit the bench so should have had them do it, couldn't be worse. It's going to be an interesting season to say the least, I got no pitching, that ain't good.... So my team officially is on the trade market to see if I can recover or else I got to start looking at next season even before the first pitch of this season.... This is going to be brutal, but will still have fun....
damn 440 and my losing streak continues... my team stinks, its it too soon start prepping for the next draft
I don't need to replace my entire lineup but could I at least fill in the empty spots... I was on a flight back from Vegas and didn't get a chance to set my lineup.
What a crappy season, first I missed the draft, now I keep forgetting to set my roster - I always remember around 12-1 on Monday, after the week is already locked...... I give up........... Another easy when for whoever plays me, I don't even have enough pitchers in my roster and several others that are injured throughout my lineup and on the DL... oh well, bring on next year............
