Draft is Live!

Gentlemen,

I'm pleased to announce our draft is LIVE! As I mentioned yesterday, the clock will be left OFF during the first 24 hours. This will give you time to review scouting reports in game and create a plan based off of your draft position (note - we're drafting serpentine, not straight!).

REMEMBER: to view player ratings properly, you must go to Manager Settings -> Player Ratings Relative to League: Major League Baseball! If it is set to United Baseball Association, all the ratings will be out of whack. (Don't worry, this will not be a problem after the draft).

When I turn the clock on - Thursday, July 2nd at 11am Eastern, teams will have 6 hours to make their selection before they are auto picked. Please pay attention - I will try to set up automatic emails, but from prior experience, they don't work in statslab. IF YOU RUN INTO ANY TROUBLE! Please let me know ASAP and I will help you work through it. The first few rounds will be the cornerstone of your new franchise - no one wants that to be messed up!

why is stats lab draft order different from in game draft order?

In game draft order is in strict order by division, for whatever reason. I ran a random number generator in excel to determine the order for our draft. Here are the results:

Don't worry, Steve, its a serpentine draft - you pick first in round 2!
