Importing all trades here. Final rosters can be found at this link.

We'll be handling the draft through Kafenatid.net (same site we used last year). Hopefully it will go smooth this year now that we are all used to the program.


Keepers:
Each team needs to declare 6 keepers. Keeper declarations end on January 31st at 11:59 pm EST(using guruboard time).



Currently traded draft picks and recent trades:

Joxer gets 2nd round pick from CLV
CLV gets last round pick from Joxer

Khahan gets 3rd round pick from Jackson
Jackson gets last round pick (round 15) from Khahan

Joxer gets round 2 pick from Khahan
Khahan gets 8th round pick from Joxer

Khahan gets round 2 pick from Souza
Souza gets round 14 pick from Khahan.
(also in deal: khahan gets A-rod, Souza gets A. Ramirez and D. Haren).

Who said anything about 10 keepers? Not that I think I would mind this season. But what the hell? Lets just do away with the draft altogether, Mike.

I've got alot of other guys who would be keepers in most leagues available for trade - V-Mart, Delmon Young, Chris Ray, Ben Sheets, Scott Kazmir, and Rich Harden just to name a few.

(The above 6 keepers are quite likely to change between now and Wednesday.)

Adam: Yes there is. Go to the yahoo fantasy sports page and look for the "Fantasy Profile" link. click that.
Scroll down and click on "Insurance Hell Keeper League" (obviously 2006). That takes you to the league home page from last year. I think its a new feature this year from Yahoo and its pretty great.


And Casner (formerly Bandos) emailed me his keepers. I forgot to tell him you don't need to register or 'log on' to the site. You just type your screen name and post.

His keeper list:

J. Santana
D. Wright
J. Nathan
Jered Weaver
J. Bay
I. Suzuki

Khahan gets 3rd round pick from Jackson
Jackson gets last round pick (round 15) from Khahan


Shouldn't that be the 18th Round? 24 player roster - 6 keepers leaves 18 rounds in the draft, right?

Need to make sure I get this in for each league...

I'm for starting the draft whenever it is convenient for everyone else - I will be out of town with no access March 21-25 for an extremely important golf/drinking/womanizing trip, so I'll need to wrap up my picks (or have a long queue that someone can take care of) by then.

clv: Sorry dude, but that's just not cutting it. March 21-25 is baseball pre-season prime time. You need to be here for the draft.

I'll go on the trip for you instead.

Some house keeping issues I want to discuss/clarify before next season:

1) How do we want to draft next year? There are a few choices:
a) Keep it like it is, reverse order of finish,
snake the rounds (pick 1-12 then 12-1)
b) Reverse order of finish, but don't snake the
rounds
c) Do something radical like have the top 5
picks be done on a lottery system (nba style)
for bottom 5 finishers and then make the
draft non-snake?

2) A few people have grumbled about the number of keepers. As of now, we are naming 6. I've heard a few people ask for 7 and a few people suggest lowering it. For 2008, we are naming 6 keepers. But for 2009, do we want to go with 5, 6 or 7 keepers?

3) More than 1 person has asked to change OBP. I'm indifferent on OBP vs BA, however, I'm not in favor of changing it in a keeper league, but its at least worth seeing how many people feel it would improve the league to switch.


For point 1, whichever option gets the most votes wins. For point 2, whichever option gets the most votes wins. For option 3, we need a 75% majority (9 yes votes) to change it.


Please no abstaining and no votes of 'i don't care' or any crap along those lines. They don't help. Be a man, have an opinion.

1. Keep it as is. Snake the draft reverse order. Right now I am in last so I will get first pick..Yeah!

2. I would rather go with 5 keepers

3. OBP is fine with me. No need to change to BA.

Jeff, you'd get first pick no matter what. But if we don't snake it, you get to pick first in each round.

1. Reverse order of finish... non-snake draft.
2. 5 Keepers. 6 at most.
3. Keep OBP.
4. Captain Kirk lusts Pokemon.

I'm for keeping the draft the same way it was, or go with nba style. seems like the same guys are still at the bottom of the standings(way to compete guys)
I'm fine with 6 keepers. but whatever we do, i can adjust. If we did dip to 5 keepers though, I'd be more inclined to want a snake draft then.
I like OBP. It's something different.

This year's draft was fine. Do not raise the number of keepers, it would be retarded to keep more. I'd go with 6 or drop it to 5
