We are coming down to the end of the free agent draft, but DO NOT DRIFT AWAY.

The prospect draft will be a continuation of the free agent draft with the clock picking up right at the end of the free agent draft. The draft order has been posted on the first post of the chat thread under the free agent draft order.

I also need you all to check in to the stadium draft thread. We should have done stadiums as part of the free agent draft, and if I remember it next year, that is what we will do.

For this year it will be separate with the order the same as the free agent draft.

One more thing. Palmtana has used his last two draft picks to activate prospects. This is the last year that will be allowed. I will be changing the rules to ensure all prospects are promoted prior to the start of the draft. The reason for this is simple. I want the free agent draft to have as many players in it as possible, so I want you to be forced to have to cut some potential keepers on your 40 man roster to promote those hot prospects.

Assuming we can bang out the last rounds tomorrow and Saturday, I'll be setting up the league on Saturday. Have your teams ready.

Thanks

A word of explanation. Here is the rule that I was using to promote my prospects late in the FA draft:

Prospects can be promoted to the major league roster at any time, provided there is roster space available.......

Here is another rule. This one will inform late round prospect promotions in the future:

Owners can drop more players, to allow for picks into the 15th round and/or to allow for prospects to be promoted from the prospect roster.

If a leagues rules allow it, instead of drafting a late round guy who probably won't be worth much next year, I'll promote a prospect. This leads to fewer decisions on who to drop the following year. Bill's point is well taken though. He want's to increase the FA pool. Cool. fowldawg had a corollary named after him and I've been jealous ever since. So I'm christening this rule update the Palmtana Corollary. (I hope it doesn't spread like fowldawg's though. :) )
