  • 1962 Rookie Draft

    Welcome to the first rookie draft for the Diamond Mind IV Keeper League. I've decided to jump Mark's gun a bit and post the thread a few hours before the start in case there's any last-minute questions or, in my case, an editorial from Scoops to type.

    The draft will begin at 9 PM ET tonight (3/24) by Beanie Bill, represenative of the Skipjacks. We will go three rounds (I don't think anyone is going to need anymore, but let us know if you do) at which point the undrafted rookies will enter the FA pool.

    --Just a reminder before you pick; for players drafted in 1962 (and 63) their 6 year clock to free agency begins with their draft year. Every player drafted this year will be a free agent after the 1967 season - regardless of how much use you have gotten out of them. If you are leaning toward a player whose best years are down the road a bit, take that into account.
    --JW, you are free to announce an early signing if you wish.

          The Skipjacks have announced an agreement with their first pick...



          Tony Oliva has signed a six-year deal starting at $1 mil.

          Beanie Bill: "We took a long and hard look at everyone available, and this player stood out among the rest. He'll hit for average, power, and he's a terrific outfielder. We're extremely happy to add him to our ballclub."

                Not me. BTW, Mac, did you see on the off-season thread the discrepancy in your two rosters?

                          OK. It's getting very close for El Halo timewise.

                              I see EH is here, his pick should be coming up shortly.

                              -edit- beat me to the punch.
