So far clarifiaction, you are now allowed to skip your pick in a round and make your next round selection first.

We were told in a sitemail that was not allowed.

I told the player their pick was not official until after they made their prior round pick, which is why they added "officially."

I can't stop people from posting things, but can adjust the official pick sheets on page 1 & 2.

Ok, I understand.

At 12:26 he picked Mookie Betts and posted it.

You had Betts listed as his pick on page 1 at 12:48 when we went to make our pick.

So we had to pick someone else.

Then at 1:16 he made his Angels pick which now made the Betts pick official.

We're not trying to nitpick but:

1. According to your explanation we should have been able to pick Betts.

2. There's an inherent advantage to skipping a late round pick to see what develops in the next round.

We just want clarity on the rules going forward.

Is a pick offical when you posted it to the running rosters or when all previous picks by that team have been made?

The front two pages are what I what I believe to be real. I guess that means official, but on more than one case I changed something there after updating it because I put the pick under the wrong player, etc. Many of those updates are made from my phone, but I try to clean it up at least once a day from computer. If anyone ever thinks I have something wrong there, please tell me so I can sort it out.

I backchanneled because I want to understand if your Betts question is only hypothetical.

I have been asking people with late picks at the end of a night to get those picks in before picking the next day, because it could get really messy without that.

Carney Lansford

Late pick
Luis Tiant

I might miss my pick time due to a movie tonight, but people behind me don't need to wait on me (they should still wait on others). I have a whole list of people likely to remain available.

2B Jeff Frye

Ok, decided on the later show after all.

Dwayne Hosey OF

looks as if we are caught up

Nice pick. I considered him. One of my favorite bench players in the SIM.

Let's go with the great P Hideki Okajima

Orioles draft starts off with Cal Ripken and Jim Palmer.
