1988 Draft Discussion

Joe Reyes. Don't retire his number too soon, Clay.

I always drop the draft list (and other reports for that matter) into Excel/Access because you can't sort multiple columns in-game (or at least I don't know how to). Plus it's much easier to filter IMO in Excel or Access.

So, I had the old list and I created a new one after the new guys were added. After that it's easy to find the differences.

Ok can you share how you do this because I can't for the life of me figure out how to dump the draft list into excel.

Setup the columns that you want in your report, then in the lower right hand corner there's a Report button. Click that and select Write report to Disk. This will actually create an HTML report that will open in your browser.

Highlight your text, copy, paste and you're done.

Took SP Nate Cox from Wareham in the Cape with my 3rd rounder- he might be a reliever with his two pitches but I'll start him as a starter in the minors and see how he does. I don't have a ton in terms of SP prospects in the minors so this was a good depth pick. If he can handle starting, he might have a chance to make some noise.

I'm loading up my draft board for the three picks I have in the upcoming round.

[Clay]

WAIT!!! We need to stop for a second. I got AUTO'd instead of AUTO'd from List.

I had my picks setup with 12 guys and Joe Reyes was not on there.

The #1 guy on my list is still there. I would like to have Joe Reyes removed and switched. THis is obviously an error.

[Andrew]

Fixed but please keep in mind that if you get auto picked because your time runs out the utility won't select a player from your list. To be safe you need to enable to auto from list option.

[Clay]

I'm nearly positive I had it on.

[Carlos]

I'm nearly positive I had it on.

I'm going to bookmark this and show it to you if Joe Reyes becomes a star.

Yeah... I expect it.

[Jistic]

This is the deepest draft we've ever had.

[Matt]

10 minutes and counting for Sin City! Maybe the GM is hanging out with Tiger and some waitresses.

[Jake]

This is the deepest draft we've ever had.

I don't know if it's the deepest draft we've ever had or if everyone's scouts just have that many different opinions on guys.

BTW Andrew, damn you again. I loved Lanny Stephenson and wanted him two picks later.

[Jistic]

Well my scout have never loved this many people this late in 10 drafts. I got a feeling it's a version thing.

Or the Feeders.

[Jistic]

Could be. There's some guys in the 4th round that woud've been long gone in the first round before.
