We have something great coming up. This is our 20th year. Dave is the league manager at ESPN so he needs to restart the 20th ANNUAL Gurupie league.

Looks like someone already did it. Russ, I assume that was you?
Is everyone in for another season?
I can set up the draft at draftime.com. But do not expect me to be the one who gets us organized.

We should prep for as early a start as possible - on the assumption that everyone is returning. So post your keepers here, and also mark them on your roster at ESPN.
My keepers: Javier Baez Nolan Arenado J.D. Martinez Kris Bryant

The only one who hasn't reported in is Philliephans.

Philliephans has been in this league for a very long time, joining to replace a friend of his who passed away very prematurely.
I don't want to give away his team unless we are sure he is not in. As a possible backup plan, my son (Jaydog) has offered to fill in if necessary. But I want to wait a day before going that route.
Either way, I'm hoping to activate the draft sometime on Thursday.

To all "Gurupie" managers . . .
I have finally decided that I will not try to manage a team this year. As much as I want to play in this anniversary year, I have life issues to deal with that have to take priority. Let's just say that fighting the onset of Parkinson's disease takes a lot of time and energy.
Guru, I like the idea of your son filling in this season. It brings my participation in this league to a full circle; Paul (philliephans) as a charter member; myself (jumpball) taking over his team when cancer took him away from us; Paul's son using the message board; and finally Guru's son taking over for me.
I feel honored to be a manager in this league for 18 of its 20 seasons.
Rich (jumpball)

Honored to join you guys. As a die hard Mets fan, as much as I'd like to honor Rich's team, I can't be named Philliephans. I'll be trying to will Yoenis Cespedes back to health by naming my team Yo Knows Baseball.
As for keepers, I'll be keeping: Charlie Blackmon Francisco Lindor Anthony Rendon Jose Abreu

Keepers will process on ESPN at 11am ET today. At that point, you will be able to see who is available.
I'll activate the draft on draftime around noon. First round will be untimed.

Draft is now active.
It should be obvious, but the two early games already played in Japan will not be included in this league.

I suggest we go back on the clock.
Also it is a wonderful thing about Jumpball. I am an old guy also and this is a great league.

Draft clock is now on. 4 hour clock, pause from 11pm-9am ET. Of course, picks are still allowed overnight.

I was sent a message by Draftime that I was supposed to pick for Coldwater but it does not let me. I am old waiting until 6PM for the pick.

I got the same message about Coldwater - sent Bill an email but didn't hear back - not sure what to do. Says they skipped him - maybe we should take the clock off on the Draft for now ???

I've been out for a while, and won't be back home for several more hours. I just turned off the clock for now, to see whether or not he shows. But anybody wants to pick, you have the right to do so.

I see that coldwater coyotes picked about an hour ago, so I trust he is back in action. I will turn the clock back on tomorrow morning.
Pick away!

We'll finish the draft today. I'll process everything on ESPN, after which all undrafted players will be on waivers. I'll send out an email when everything is good to go.
