    And Castor, the League of Appreciation doesn't take kindly to those kinds of spelling mistakes.

    I think y'all are missing something. Having seven pitcher spots or six pitcher spots per day doesn't give someone an advantage over anyone else. The inning limit is still there, and you can reach it with six pitcher positions or seven pitcher positions. However, if you are actually only planning on playing six pitchers (4 starters, 2 relievers) all season long, you are going to fall short of the inning limit, and you will have to play some other pitchers at some point if you want to reach it. I just think having seven spots will prevent someone from being punished because their pitchers happen to be starting on the same day. Plus, there's probably a reason Yahoo chose seven pitchers instead of six. I doubt it was just a random decision.

    But since I'm faced with so much opposition, I withdrawal my request. I just wanted to make sure everyone understood why I was asking.

    I understand why you're asking, and I can see your point. It almost doesn't matter to me what issue comes up - once the draft starts, the setup should stay the same. That's just my opinion.....

    Exactly. I would've had no problem changing it pre-draft. But since I've made a couple of decisions directly related to this, I don't think we should change it.

    I guess that makes Phil Nevin "Professor X," because he's in a wheelchair. :(

    Yeah, Oski can definitely have the first pick in the 24th.

    Are you people assuming we will get to the 24th round before Phil Nevin returns from injury?!?! :)

    I hope Oski didn't commit suicide over the Nevin thing.

    Actually, he's probably on Spring Break this week. If there's any hope for him, he's nowhere near a computer....

    Argh. Why don't we all partner up with someone, and trade lists so someone can make our picks if we're not around.

    Well, he's online now...hopefully he can stay awhile to give RIET and Baqui a chance to pick.

    We need 1 night to just finish this thing.


    And I see you're on Oski. Make your pick.
