  • I am for waiting as well

    The Naturals on April 2, 2020 12:25 PM

  • I also like wait + slow draft.

    Ballad of Sandfrog on April 1, 2020 10:24 AM

  • Waiting seems to be the best way to go since there is even more uncertainty than when we initially decided to wait. But when the timeline does start to clear up (let's hope a few weeks from now) then a slow draft sounds like a great option to adjust to the irregular and unpredictable set of circumstances. The Notorious Gregorius vote is wait + slow draft.

    The Notorious Gregorius on April 1, 2020 9:32 AM

  • My vote is to wait for a while longer (few more weeks?) to see if the season gets canceled. No sense doing any type of draft if the season is wiped out.

  • Sorry I may be in minority here, but I don’t see much of a point in any auction right now. There is a greater likelihood of no mlb season than there is a shortened season at this point. Even if a shortened season with no fans occurs, we will have at least a 3-4 week run up timeframe for players to begin “spring” training again. I say continue to wait.

  • I was trying to see how slow auction works here but couldn’t find it. I did a slow NFBC draft in early March and enjoyed it. I am thinking of doing another because $50 bucks to kill time for 2-3 weeks may be worth it. Point it: I am Interested but okay as-is.

  • In terms of draft date/timing, Pandman we can revisit as the planned time approaches. To Sonic's point, I think it's worth considering his point about giving ourselves a way to fill the time by doing an auction sooner rather than waiting. I suppose one option to consider would be a slow auction, which I do in another (non-Ottoneu) league I'm in. If folks are interested in an alternative approach I could throw together a suggestion, but I don't feel strongly either way. What do you think?

  • If that’s the day we end of drafting can we push the start time back? I’m working in the hospital that weekend/week and am on the west coast, starting 5 PM or later Pacific time would be better

    Pandaman on March 27, 2020 9:13 PM

  • I'm going to be in the minority here but I wouldn't mind having the draft soon so we can do transactions. I recently bought a book about Graph Theory. I'm bored out of my skull.
