    1961/62 Offseason

    --The clocking is now ticking on the various phases of off season player movement. The timeline'
    1) The non-tender period is now active. Your only opportunity to release players without them counting against your 1962 salary cap has begun. The deadline for submitting non-tenders is Midnight EST, Thursday March 23. I'll provide current 1962 rosters in the next post. Non-tendered players will be available to be bid on in the secondary FA auction.
    2) The rookie draft will commence at 9PM EST on Friday, March 24. The first three rounds will be conducted live. If you can't be there please get a draft list to me or another proxy prior to the draft commencing.
    2a) The draft will continue through Midnight EST on Thursday, March 30. Draft window for rounds 4-? will allow for a 12 hour window to pick. When your 12 hours is up you will be presumed to have passed on that pick. Any players not picked in the draft will move to the secondary FA auction along with the non-tendered players.
    3) The Premium Free Agent auction will commence at 12:01 AM EST on Friday, March 31. Multiple bids per posts are okay until the last hour of the draft when there will be a limit of one bid per post. The PFA auction will end at 11 PM EST on March 31.
    4) The Secondary Free Agent auction will commence at 12:01 AM on April 01. It will conclude at 11 PM EST on Monday, April 3. Same bidding rules apply.
    5) Profiles are due by Midnight EST on April 10. That will also be the deadline for any trades or other moves you want to be in effect for the first series of the season.
    6) Opening day will be Thusrday, April 13.

            Mark, there are a few players on doormats mixed into the eligible list, like Clay Dalrymple of the Phillies and Tom Cheney of the Senators (although Chaney didn't play in the '61 DM season, so maybe he really is eligible.

                  --Cheney was inadvertently left off the Senators 1961 roster, but has been added for 1962. Dalrymple was on the 61 Phillies, but I neglected to purge his 62 version. Please remove both from your draft lists.

I wouldn't be surprised if I missed something or got something wrong. Please point out any errors as soon as possible so we can get them fixed before draft day. I don't believe any picks after the 3rd round have changed hands.

                          Mark - Position #17, I got Mac's pick and traded it to Dudecar. Did he trade it later to the Redbirds? Everything else involving me looks A-OK according to my records.

                              Yes. I traded that pick to the Redbirds as part of the Maris deal.
