1977 Expansion Draft

Players still on their old teams: www.hoffbl.com/HOFFBL_EXPANSION_TEAMS.lg.zip



REPORTS:

ALL PLAYERS IN SINGLE POOL: www.hoffbl.com/expansion/agents.html <-- these players are ranked by actual ratings, regardless of age
TOP 100 PROSPECTS: www.hoffbl.com/expansion/topprospects.html <-- these players are ranked by potential talents, regardless of actual ratings, all are 25 or younger
LEAGUE REPORT: www.hoffbl.com/expansion/ <-- these reports show players by team (necessary in the latter portion of each round)



HELPFUL HINT: At the beginning of the round it will be easy to simply pick from the available "free agent" or "top prospects" pool. As picks are made, it will be important to check the player's page and see what team they are from --- REMEMBER: you cannot pick from a team that has already lost a player in the round. Near the end of the round, it will be necessary to keep tabs of what existing teams have not lost a player and to check only those teams and research their ratings page. The last pick will probably have to pick a scrub from the Mets. Good luck.

Dougie/Dan, you guys have all day SATURDAY to study draft pool ... but feel free to start any time (NOW EVEN), but no later than Sunday evening perhaps?

Please coordinate with each other as to when you may be available at the same time to get 24 picks in a row done. Will probably take 60-90 minutes, but faster if you prepare a list and just go down the list tbh. Also, feel free to send a list to me or MARK (Chicago White Sox). Remember, only necessary to pick 1 player from each team.

[CSCommish]

FYI, the goal is referenced in the OFF-SEASON SCHEDULE:

SUN 7/30 - Round 1
MON 7/31 - Round 2
TUE 8/ 1 - Round 3
WED 8/ 2 - Round 4

I'm out of town this weekend but have my phone and will be checking in as regularly as I can. have some time tomorrow morning and will try to send a list in order for the whole first round as to cover myself.

excited to get this going. slim pickings on some teams (yes shale I'm talking about your team) but that's part of the fun building a winner from the absolute basement up

I sent a list in dougie. I won't be around much but once you start it up my list will keep it flowing.

[dougiejays]

Okay, I have a very tentative list almost. Would prefer to do it live or live-ish rather than just firing the list in (I have a bunch of very similar pieces), so will anyone be on to go through M's list?
