[USML Announce] Draft Date

[Blocker, Mark B.]

So I take this to mean you are not available on March 17/18.  Does the
group have other ideas?

Is Kevin Orie in your group??  I am flying out hopefully with
Marquette's team to an NCAA destination.  My guess is the plane goes no
later than Wed night the 17th even if they play on the 19th.

	I am available on the night of the 17th and although I am
scheduled to fly to meet a group of friends in Las Vegas on the 18th, I
am prepared to change my flight to the following day, if necessary.  I
commend Rick for his similar response indicating his willingness to do
whatever is necessary to make these dates work.  I strongly encourage
others to do the same.

	 

	I'd like to reiterate my suggestion that we all agree on a draft
date for next year's draft before we leave the draft table (or in the
case of John and Andy, before they hang up).  This has now become an
annual circle jerk that has finally led us to having to draft without
two of our members in the room and doing so on a weekday night.  Draft
day is one of the best days of the year for me and I know that most, if
not all, of you agree with me.  As I said before, we agree on the date
for next year's draft in two of my other leagues and we've never had a
problem sticking to the date.  When you know you have a committment, its
just much easier to keep the date free.  I'm already investigating when
Spring Break is scheduled at my sons schools, so I'll be prepared on
draft day.

	 

	'nuff said.

	 

	Now on to the much more important topic of trading.  In light of
our pre-opening day draft, it sure seems to me that my cheap minor
leaguers on rookie contracts are even more valuable than before.  You
can rest assured that if I release them into the player pool, many of
them will be drafted in the regular draft and therefore of much lesser
value.  Even if not drafted, they will go in the $15 and $10 rounds
rather than their current $2 and $5 salaries  As always, I can be
reached at this email address or at 312-841-2817.
