I had the Phillies last season. I can do it again, but if I can switch, I would like it better.
If the commish would allow it, I'd switch with you (I'm starting with the Padres). In a way, we'd be trading all of our draft picks to each other. However, I don't want to make it a pain for the commish so I'm fine staying put, too.
I sent ermocito a sitemail requesting the swap. We can make this trade between ourselves. All my picks (starting with Phillies; I have 2 teams) for all your picks. OK?
Sounds like we have a deal.

I think I have reversed teams for you two in each of the 24 rounds.
I just swapped names, but added more notes at the top section where ballparks will be added after round 24.
Please double check my work! I think I got them all. You are in at least the same places (3rd from top, 5th from bottom) on each round's list.

Everyone
I have updated the round picks to this point. Since I have to open 6 messages to note the players taken down farther, I am going to do that less frequently (when a round is completed, probably) but will find a way to make a note of it.

I am noticing some confusion with pick1or2.

He made his Rd 3 Angels pick before his Round 2 Rangers pick and quoted the A-Rod rangers belonging to his 2nd team. I suppose as long as others have picked early to enable you to be up for two picks at the same time, there's no harm in posting out of order, but I just want to make sure there is no confusion with his 2nd team pick1or2(2) which has an Astros pick for Round 2 due by Wednesday night.

It looks ok to me. The important part is not picking ahead from a specific team until everyone with a pick ahead of you for that team has already picked.

pick1or2 is still waiting on the r1 Astros pick before his 2nd team can select an Astro. Might be tomorrow before he can.

The Angels r1 r2 picks were both in, and I recorded Erstad as round 3. I am guessing he realized after a few minutes that is Rangers pick was not yet shared. Forging ahead without knowing it would have hurt only pick1or2 (and could be ill-advised).

People who bought a 2nd team can treat their two teams as independent of each other. None of those 2nd teams draft back to back.

I hope anyone who wants to double check the 1st page (where picks are recorded) will reach out ASAP if I make an error. I've done so before!
