Looks like a losing battle but I'd rather not go 40 rounds. Two reasons:A. I've been planning for 35 rounds and drafting old schmucks more than young upside guys.B. I don't know any more players.
:goodposting: Mildly opposed to 40 just based on not wanting to change the rules mid-draft. Who cares though, I'll roll with whatever.

On the fence for adding 5 guys. Not a big fan of changing things this late in the draft, and I really only have like 4 guys total left on my lists.

Will get my picks for today in this weekend.

I'm game for 40, although I might be selecting myself pretty soon. And I'm a slow white boy that throws like a girl.

ROSTER

C - Buster Posey, Eli Whiteside, Welington Castillo

1B - Ike Davis, Todd Helton, Shelley Duncan

2B - Will Rhymes, Darwin Barney

3B - Scott Rolen, Juan Francisco

SS - Starlin Castro

UT - Juan Uribe, Matt Tolbert, Brandon Hicks

OF - Andrew McCutchen, Torii Hunter, Jacoby Ellsbury, David Murphy, Allen Craig, Mike Trout

SP - Dallas Braden, Joel Pinerio, Randy Wells, Jeff Francis, Ross Ohlendorf, John Lannan, Bruce Chen

RP - Luke Gregerson, Mike Adams, Sean Marshall, Darren Oliver, Micheal Wuertz, Robinson Tejeda, Zach Braddock, Mark Difelice, John Grabow, Kevin Slowey

Starting to love what looks like a lot of versatility in my infield. Rhymes should get a decent number of PAs at 2B backing up Guillen. Uribe will start the season at 3B while also playing 2B and probably some SS. Barney is looking like a high side platoon 2B who will also see some SS if Castro misses time. Hopefully, Francisco sees the PAs when Rolen misses time and might see some OF time. If Posey gets hurt, I am in trouble. I should be solid at 1B and in the OF especially if the rumors about Borbon are true giving Murphy more PAs.

My starters are my weakness especially if Slowey can't find a starting job. I should get enough starter innings but who knows about the quality. I like the versatility of my relief and hopefully the starters provide a long man or two.

I need to post this just to figure out what I even have this point, it's hard to keep track going this deep.

1B: L Joey Votto, R Jorge Cantu (3B)

2B: R Gordon Beckham, R Jerry Hairston (SS/OF)

SS: R JJ Hardy, S Jonathan Herrera (2B/3B)

3B: S Chase Headley, R Ty Wigginton (1B/OF)

OF: R Justin Upton, S Nick Swisher, L Jason Kubel, L Alex Gordon, R Desmond Jennings, R John Mayberry Jr.

C: L Miguel Montero, S Ryan Doumit (1B/OF), R Jordan Pacheco, S Jose Morales

SP: R Ubaldo Jimenez, R Shaun Marcum, L Derek Holland, L Clayton Richard, R Luke Hochevar,

R Esmil Rogers, R John Ely, R Bartolo Colon, R Aaron Cook, R Jarrod Parker

RP: R Rafael Betancourt, L Jose Mijares, L Mike Gonzalez, R Kyle Farnsworth, L Franklin Morales, L Rex Brothers

Thanks again to Oso for the assist early on. Seems like a fairly well balanced team so far in terms of both positions and pitching, with some reasonable upside potential. I think everyone is screwed if one of their top guys goes down for any meaningful amount of the season.

I'm fine with going to 40, although if someone is really bent about changing rules mid-stream I'd rather not do it.
 
Roster

C: Mike Napoli, Nick Hundley, Brian Schneider

1B: Justin Morneau, Mat Gamel

2B: Dustin Pedroia

SS: Yuniesky Betancourt, Brendan Ryan

3B: David Freese

UTIF: Miguel Cairo, Daniel Descalso

OF: Adam Jones, Luke Scott, Logan Morrison, Ryan Spilborghs, Felix Pie, Marcus Thames, Ben Revere

SP: Josh Johnson, Max Scherzer, Madison Bumgarner, James McDonald, Brad Penny, Tom Gorzelanny, Brad Bergesen

RP: Joakim Soria, Jonathan Broxton, Grant Balfour, Joe Thatcher, D.J. Carrasco, Ryan Perry, Mike Dunn, Mark Melancon, Jenrry Mejia

We're so far past the point where I can tell if this team is good or not. Really don't like my position player depth though, I know that much.

 
C - Brian McCann, Jose Molina, Bengie Molina

1B - Mark Teixeira, Brett Wallace

2B - Chase Utley, Brad Emaus, Luis Castillo, Daniel Murphy

SS - Derek Jeter, John McDonald

3B - Chris Johnson, Matt Dominguez

OF - Vernon Wells, Travis Snider, Melky Cabrera, Juan Rivera, Lastings Milledge, Bryce Harper

SP - Brandon Morrow, Brian Matusz, Mike Minor, Jeff Niemann, Bud Norris, AJ Burnett, Joe Blanton, Jo-Jo Reyes

RP - Jose Valverde, Scott Downs, Brandon League, Jon Rauch, J.C. Romero, Fernando Rodney, Tim Collins

The extent of Utley's injury sent me scrambling, but my infield depth may end up stronger because of it. Emaus looks like he'll win the 2B job for the Mets, so I'll at least have a playable starter there. Hopefully Castillo provides decent defensive coverage for the middle infield and Murphy is eligible as a bat at 1B/2B/3B. Dominguez and Mike Minor ending up in AAA could hurt but hopefully they both end up back in the majors soon enough. If I can get 5 decent starters from the #### I threw at the wall, I like my team.

I'll go with the majority in terms of 40 rounds.

We'll see what happens, I feel like I have an excellent fielding team outside of 1B and maybe C, hitting should be decent. Obviously I'm most worried about my pitching, hoping a few of these backend guys will pan out, and would like to see some bounce back years for my relievers. These extra five rounds will give me a few more lottery tickets.

I feel pretty good with what I have. Might be a little week at 1B/3B and starting pitchign is going to be a worry for every team. I am hopeing that Thome/Giambi get anough at bats to fill in as needed and that my Utility guys get some time at third. It is going to be interesting to see how this all plays out. I don't think I am going to like waiting 8 months to see the final results.

 
So how is drafting these extra 6 players gunna work?
Good question. Here's my Solomonesque ruling. There was a majority but not an overwhelming consensus on the extra four rounds and there is nearly a full round's worth of picks outstanding (23). I also suspect some people made round 33 and 34 picks under the assumption that we were going longer.

So we're going 37 rounds for sure with three first-come, first-served selections (rounds 35, 36 & 37) Monday at 10AM, 12 noon and 2PM Eastern time.

If more than 45 total picks have been Monday 6PM Eastern (excluding make-up picks for earlier rounds), we'll do the same free-for-all procedure on Tuesday for rounds 38-40. That's the equivalent of 15 drafters making their allotted three picks. If 45 or fewer picks are on the board Monday, the draft is over after 37 rounds.

In either case, any and all make-up picks must be made before Wednesday midnight Pacific time. Larryboy is the only guy who has a case for an extension.

So we can each make 1 pick at 10 AM, then another pick at noon, and then another at 2PM. We can't take all 3 at 10AM. Correct?
