1988 Draft Discussion

[Jake]

Wow... I clearly had the best draft of the 24 franchises. Thank you to all of the also rans.

I would also hate to play you this year.

Nice. Just noticed one of my draft picks needs TJ surgery after this most recent sim. He was just a 6th rounder, but it still sucks.

[BradZ]

Draft is complete!

I just got back and read through this thread... damn I feel like I have been away for ages.

My auto from list got my 1st 3 picks and have been on auto since. I am happy with who I have got except for one of the autopicks.

[Jim]

I'm on auto but it isn't picking for me If someone wants to advance it feel free (I don't have any guys in my queue).

[Andrew]

Now if they could somehow have a feature where you import a file from the utility into the game and it automatically moves the drafted players to their teams that would be really nice.

Tell me about it. That's the worst sim of the season for me.

[Clay]

I'm officially on AUTO. Got the last two guys I wanted.

[Lintyfresh85]

That would be fantastic!

[Jim]

The utility is much better. The fact that it can autopick when somebody's time expires without Clay or I intervening is key.

In the future we'll hold the draft closer to the in game date (mid June) so you will be able to use the current seasons feeder league stats.

This was easily the fastest/smoothest draft yet, its amazing how quickly we were able to get it done. Moving to OOTP10 with the better utilities has been a great improvement.

Draft is flying by right now.

Just picked up another college pitcher... this time its Gin-fan Qiao out of USC.

Third straight pick I've spent on a 21 year old. I'm hoping advanced age means that the players will advance a bit quicker in their ratings progression than say a 17-18 year old.

I like Gin-fan for two reasons. One, I'm impressed by his ratins and individual pitch ratings.Two, he's a fan of Gin. We have something in common.

I just realized that we were drafting... Shit...

[Sully]

I'm on auto-pick from here on out.
